I kind of like the idea of the hitch. Thanks for all the feedback guys! I'll keep poking around.

Hey guys!
I've been trying to figure out a better solution for transporting my surfboards in my 85' Dolphin and started looking into a Yakima roof rack system. I talked with my local RV shop (Ryan's RV which I really like) and my guy there just said it's a bad idea. Basically, his point was that adding more holes in the roof with weight will shift the bolts around and end up causing leaks in the long run. I'm in Seattle so we get a lot of rain and I work hard to keep our Dolphin dry (seems weird saying...). Has anyone had experience with installing and having leaks? Is it just a matter of resealing every year or does it truly expose you to a much great chance of water leaks? Any info would be much appreciated!
Added a pic of Kenny the Dolphin and I down at Grayland State Park just because.

Just picked up a 1985 Dolphin! The previous owner had it for 18 years and it was very well taken care of. I just had the thermostat replaced due to it running a bit warm as well as some plumbing redone to fix a small water leak. Other than that, it's a clean rig! We've already taken it on 2 trips, one over the mountains and the other to the coast. We're headed out again this weekend and climbing even higher on HWY 20 over to Winthrop!
Here's some shots of Kenny the Dolphin.

I just picked up a Tadi Brothers wireless system with a monitor that clips onto the rear view mirror. It has really good reviews and I'll be installing over the next few weeks. I'll be sure and let you know how it goes with some photos as well.
