Canoe or Kayak Hood Hook

Sometime you don't have a place to hook your canoe on your front bumper. I'm going to show you my solution for this problem.

First you will need a grommet kit available at wall-mart or other stores in the camping department. You need to begin to cut 2 pieces of an old strap, 2 foots each.

Punch 2 holes in the strap, one each end. Take the lighter to burn the edge of the strap and the hole you just created in the strap.

Install the grommet in the hole like in the picture and place it in the die. Bump it hard with a hammer.

This is the final product...

You need to find a bolt to fix it under the hood. I took the hood latch bolt and it works great. When you don't need it, just put it under the hood and you don't see it.
