With that much boat hanging out back behind the back wheels, am I going to sideswipe cars/trees/grannies when I make turns? I'm trying to visualize if the boat will just follow me, or if it will swing way out to the side.
You'll be fine. Just strap it tight and it shouldn't move too much. Ratchet straps are your friend, but you only need one. I'm paranoid about stuff falling out of my truck, but you don't need 14 pieces of rope to keep a kayak in your truck bed.

Gonna hijack a bit but to gain a little more room on our 22’ flat boat we made a U shaped bracket to stack 3 or 4 pirouges, it hung over the side of the boat about 16’” and one time while going over the US 90 bridge in Morgan city we passed a cyclist, I don’t think we knocked him into the river but it was close – good thing he only had one layer of spandex on……
Oh and I have a 13' pirouge that I put in 5.5' tacoma bed - just ratchet it tight and put dekes etc in fron end, now I dont go too far w/ it maybe 15 mi tops
