![Lefebre highly recommends cam-buckle straps, rather than ratchet straps, because it's easy to over-tighten ratchet straps, which can weaken or damage a kayak's hull.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/img_1008.jpg)
![Once at the water, Lefebre lowers the kayak out of the truck and onto the ramp. Again, the front and rear skids help protect the hull.](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/img_1018.jpg)
