Issues? Jeeps are made to haul kayaks, plywood, surf boards, I've even seen couches. Before I purchased my Jeep rack that I use now to haul my kayak, I would just take the top down and strap the kayak on top. I'd get wet on the ride home from the kayak dripping water, but no worries..it's a jeep. I did haul the kayak on top of the canvas top a couple times with no problem either. I would just throw a packing blanket on top to avoid any damage to the canvas. Then strap the kayak on and you're good to go.
Issues....there are no issues...

I think if he has a hitch, and gets a bed extender from harbor freight, it may work laid across the roll bars.
