A lot depends on your style of roof rack. I have used a cable with a
lock to attach the boats to the roof rails which are bolted through the
roof of the car:

(Yes, I'm sawing through it, after having forgotten the key 1000 km away
:-) )

If you have a different style of roof rack (which isn't permanently
attached to your car, maybe you can lock all the boats together, or use
another part of the car which can be used to lock something to.
