It is called a "boat loader" they are $60 dollars at Wild river outfitters, or i have seen them for as low as 45 online (+shipping)
A friend of mine has one, it seems to work great...but (there always is a but)...putting one end on the ground (to load onto roof) wore a hole through the keel of his yak....nearly sank a couple weeks ago. Needless to say, i want one, i am getting one, but i will be careful dragging the yak bottom on the pavement...

Yeah Ric has one on his jeep cherokee, and works pretty slick... i am getting sick of manhandling my t120 (lighter than your 140) up onto my cherokee.
