2074801 9111344 PCTABS00006 A transport apparatus for elongate objects, primarily so-called snow-boards or monoskis, is provided with a load strut (1) which extends transversely across a vehicle roof and is secured in the side edges thereof. The load strut (1) has a holder device (2) with at least one accommodation space (6) for objects, with the longitudinal direction of the space in the direction of travel of the vehicle and with the lateral direction of the space inclining in relation to the vertical. In order to provide reliable retention and superior transport capacity without the risk of projecting parts of the objects coming into contact with the vehicle roof, the holder device (2) is provided with a rigid anchorage arrangement (7, 12, 15) which, with a lower portion (3), straddles and is secured on the strut (1). The holder device (2) is further provided with three fingers (7) inclining in relation to the vertical and obliquely upwardly directed, the fingers being provided with soft gripping members (8) which define the accommodation spaces (6). The holder device (2) is also provided with a strap (11) which retains the objects in the accommodation spaces (6) and is secured in the two outermost fingers (7), in one of these by means of an adjustable fastener (10).
