I'm upping the ante with "two colour-coordinated kayaks" on the roof of the ForkenSwift:



Took my nephew kayaking yesterday around some of the park islands on the St Lawrence river just west of Brockville. Round trip by EV was about 10 km. (No comments about the destroyed aero efficiency - and yes, it was noticeable!)
Look at the bright side ... at least you didn't put a rowboat up there! In the overall scheme of things a couple of kayaks are close the the MOST aero efficient things you could strap to the roof, hehe!

Regards,
