I don't know how much that thing weighs, or how much weight you are willing to add, but it seems like you could build up a frame to better support the canoe out of 2x4s or similar boards mounted on top of the rack. It wouldn't need to be as wide as the entire bed, just enough to frame the boat. That would give you extra clearance on the bow and allow you to shift the center of gravity back between the uprights. Add a 3rd/4th tie-down for the bow and stern. You don't want a 17' kite.
Cool looking canoe!
