I have a Tacoma short bed (5 ft) with a trailer hitch extender from harbor freight hauling a 12'9 yak. I just simply strap it down to the extender and a second tie down point on the bed itself. Red shirt attached to the yak via carabiner.

I think it's covered already. I throw my slayer propel 13 in the 5'8" bed of my Sierra every weekend. I have transported my trident 15(almost 16') but it's sketchy without an extender.

I just lay it flat in the center and throw one strap from the tie down rings through both handles and tighten 'er down.
