Thule roofracks'll be very similar to the boathouse ones. And you said you don't want handiracks? Try the car make website, opel? More likely to get a good fit, but, overall, will be very similar and cost a lot.

I got the roof bars for my micra off this crowd. May not be the same roof bars for the corsa, but the ones I got were very very good

Wont be able to make the polo on Saturday but if people were going to the boaterX and willing to maybe take an extra boat it sounds like fun.
I'll even conduct some experiments in my wind tunnel to find out how much petrol money is owed

Handiracks also scratch the hell out of your roof.
