This is how it all fits in the trunk and on the roof. The handles of the oars rest on the dashboard. Not shown are the slings we made from pvc pipe, or the swivel rack--those go on top of the oars and the rigging. To onlookers it might appear to be quite a job getting myself and my gear to the water, but it only takes me 7 minutes from the parking lot to actually rowing, so I can't complain.
