Thanks Scotthen. My problem is lifting the NuCanoe, for example, enough to safely, or as safe as I feel, up onto my Jetta. I am just really afraid of dropping the fool thing and there goes a bunch of body work $. Thule makes a "lifter" also, but too much for me. Could you elaborate on the round foam pool toys to lift up? I can almost picture it, but not enough.
Thanks,
Mike
