Malone Standard Foam Block Universal Canoe Carrier Kit — Easy Roof Rack Transport

Effortless Canoe Transport for Every Trip

The Malone Standard Foam Block Universal Canoe Carrier Kit is a budget-friendly option designed for canoeists who want a simple, reliable way to haul a single canoe on a car roof. This kit blends soft, protective padding with essential securing hardware, creating a streamlined setup that helps you focus on the journey rather than the gear. Expect a lightweight, easy-to-handle solution that prioritizes a smooth ride and straightforward use on short trips.

Why this kit fits a wide range of setups

With a universal cut-out profile, the 6 inch EVA foam blocks adapt to round, square, and factory oval cross rails. This broad compatibility means you don’t have to worry about rail shape when you are preparing for a quick weekend paddle or a lakeside adventure. The included straps and tie-downs are sized to work with the most common roof rack configurations, helping you secure the canoe with confidence as you head to your favorite launch site.

What you get

• Four 6-inch non-skid EVA foam blocks
• Two 15-foot cam buckle load straps
• Two safety tie-downs to secure the bow and stern
• Four S-hooks for flexible anchoring
• Reusable travel tote for convenient storage

The kit is made in the USA from EVA closed-cell foam, a material chosen for its gentle padding and durability. A compact storage tote keeps the pieces organized when not in use, and the bundle carries a simple, one-year limited warranty, reflecting Malone’s focus on dependable, user-friendly gear.

Real-world benefits and use cases

• Low-cost option that covers essential canoe-hauling needs for short trips or occasional use
• Easy to install and remove, saving time at the launch and pull-out, especially for solo trips
• Protects the canoe with soft padding while keeping travel gear organized
• Suitable for a variety of rail styles, reducing compatibility concerns

Malone emphasizes simple design and practical performance, allowing you to focus on the water and the ride rather than the mounting process. While results will vary by vehicle and conditions, this kit offers a straightforward path to secure transport that aligns with Malone’s ethos of simple to sell, simple to install, and simple to use.
