Hey L&VW, I'm not sure the right photos came up and would like to see how you do this. It may be a problem on my end though. I have been thinking about what Beldar said-deck down is better. Had this idea of making some kind of cradle to fit in the bed of my truck and having 4 or 5 perpendicular canvas tie downs attached. Load the boat and tighten the tie downs so the boat raises up and is suspended. Of course, wouldn't want it to swing so more planning would be necessary for securing it but such a cradle could also be used to store the boat when not in use. Oh, and I'm almost finished with my PVC dolly built from Tag's plans-that should help a bit for my solo loading plan...
