To be honest i do not have most of $400 for a proper roof rack and i wondered if any of you had any alternative (cheaper!) alternatives. Here are my details.

I would like a temporary or semi permanent (Possibly permanent at the right price!)roof rack for my Hyundai Accent 2001. No gutters only two doors, no opening window at the back and a hatch back.

I want it to carry my kayak to the shore a couple of times a week. I would
prefer non permanent fitting... but perhaps that is not possible. I would be pleased if you would make suggestions for alternative systems..

The kayak is a "skin on frame" 5 meters long and very light.

Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks

PS I have a Mega "something" foam based gizmo, for a surfboard set-up at the moment, it does work. I have awful trouble fixing it at the back to the "hinges" of the hatch. I am not too sure how safe it is. Also because of the straps that run through the front doors of the car the rain pours in if it is raining.
Perhaps i am too picky?
