bed extender at the most
The Last Coco regularly hauled 14ft kayaks in the bed of his ford ranger with no extender when he lived in NWLA.
It wont be as bad as you think.

Foam roof top carrier blocks. Keeps bed free to haul the rest of your stuff.

Put the Yeti in the front, no need to even tie down.

Put the nose in one corner and strap it in 
Maybe put a flag on it if you feel like doing so

This. Ratchet straps are all you need. Just make sure anything loaded inside the canoe is towards the front of the bed. You'll be fine.
As Pop mentiined, I did this regularly. Even 2 14' yaks back there. No bed extender needed.

This is what I do for my 14' pirogue but I only go < 10 miles. If I had to go further I'd get the trailer hitch extender
ETA this is in a F150 5.5' bed
