Anyone here fit a surfboard on or in their SC300/400?

This is basically the impediment to me getting one, if it can't fit my 6'8" short board somehow. My only thought was the front seat (fold back, slide board in like a person).

 

you could get a yakima rack

 

That is your only option. Otherwise you are going to end up looking like my dumbazz trying to get a Bomex bumper home from Greyhound a few years ago in my Porsche Turbo.

The bumper of which actually happens to be about the size OF a Porsche Turbo.

 

:O!!! lol theres no way its gonna fit

 

try this

 

try it with the passenger front seat tilted and motored all the way back...the length sounds like it would fit...I've had 7'6" fishing rods inside my cabin before...the trick is to angle the item in with the door all the way open or with the window down...hope this helps

 

some good ideas but the fact is its not designed to carry anything of that size. i remember i could not even fit one of my wheels into the trunk. lol

 

youre gonna have to fly solo though. my snowboard fit in the front seat with the seat back with plenty of room to spare. not sure about the thickness though

 

Wow, you guys are helpful. Thanks.

I think if none of the "in the car" ideas work, I might try a set of soft racks.


I'm not so sure about using a hard rack. I worry about the time to install and remove, but maybe it's not that bad (Howie?).

 

it takes maybe 2-3 minutes to take on/off the roof rack.

 

i just use some pool floaties and some tie downs, if you put the floaties down and lay the board on top of them tie it down tightly with 2 motorcycle tie downs your golden

 

this is awesome if you have 500 to drop

well $423...

 

It depends on what size board of course. I had to fit mine out the sunroof or flat on the passenger seat (laid back). Like what the others said, your best bet is a nice rack.

 

And if you want to go surfing in the snow

 

just use the OEM spoiler as a surfboard/snowboard
