    Need a rack system for a 17 foot canoe.

    You could pick up a Yakima Show Boat Roller unit "ONLY" and fabricate a couple of brackets to mount to your truck rack. I think the padded roller unit is 44" Long and 2" Diameter. Use the roller in the back and up front use a couple of Gunwale brackets and tie down straps.
