Soft racks with rain-gutter or roof-lip attachment, $10

Da Right Style board bag, $20

Bag has safely transported 3 boards to CR and Peru with glass-on fins, could probably do 4 potato chips with the fins out, but basically a double-board bag with plenty of room for extra padding.

I've always protected rails w/ air-conditioning foam, and decks with a foam exercise/yoga mat.

A bit awkward though, as the openings are on the ends. One compartment on one end, other compartment opens on the other end. Kind of a pain sliding in a waxy board or boards with a rubber nose guard.

Can also serve as a sleeping bag.

I'm interested in the rack for a trip. Do they work on most rental cars

Replace turf grass with native plants that don't need irrigation and synthetic fertilizers or chemicals that can go into our waterways and ocean

Sorry to say, but I don't know! It's been a long time since I've used them, and I vaguely only remember using them on cars with rain gutters, which a lot of newer cars don't have.

I'll attach a close-up picture if that helps.

If the rain-gutter clips don't work, you could just let out a couple extra inches, tuck the slack inside the cab above the car doors, and them tie them together inside the car with a cheap tie-down.

Edit: Added pics of fit on a 2009 Scion and 2013 VW. Looks like they'd work, but you might want to add a shred of cloth or electrical tape or something soft to avoid scratching the car. You could also add another tie-down inside the car as described above for safety.

Even though it's only 1 board wide, we managed to stack about 3 bags (7 boards) on top of a Nissan Sunny.

And I might trade for $10 in credit toward that recumbent bike if you still have it.

The bike sold a couple weeks ago. Thx for the up front assessment of the rack.
