Last weekend we put a canoe on my full sized Outlander. I know the sport is shorter in length - but I don't think it's all that much shorter.

You will need roof rack rails and cross members. The way this 17' canoe balanced on my cross members it wasn't as far forward as I would have liked as the blue tie down only had 3" of play.

Used the cheap Canadian Tire ratchet set with 2 ratchets (red) and 2 friction grips (blue). The friction ones were attached to the front and rear tow hooks which are offset from the middle of the vehicle.
