Tokk my second paddle this morning and landed first couple of fish in the yak!! So it's christened!

The rug is a good idea, I use a wet heavy beach towel over the back of the minivan when I have to load it by myself.

I use the soft foam pads and straps for the minivan, but when I take my truck, I just put it in back. Thinking of getting a rack type bed extension.
The bed is 6' and the yak's 12', every time I transport it, I can see it falling off.
