It is a homemade design, but very effective. We carry 2 kayaks and 2 mountain bikes. it's very stable, even in cross winds. See our profile page.

I've looked long and hard at what I can carry to play on the water with and an inflatable is going to be my first attempt. 03 Dodge 2500 Cummins SB Quad (ATTA 45g aux. fuel tank, Dr. Performance module, 4" MBRP, Ride-Rite) 08 Cougar 276RLS with 16" BFG E rated LT's 5th AirBorne pin box SuperGlide hitch Photo gallery fishbarned • View posts NY USA Senior Member Joined: 02/07/2004 View Profile Offline Posted: 02/06/09 08:44am Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator open the slide(so you can fit them) and put them inside then close the slide and you on the road. we have done this and it works well 2001 Sunnybrook BWFS/ 2005 Montana 3400 RL 2010 Ford F-350 XLT, DRW, 4x4, PSD, Tow command, 8'bed AntiqFreq • View posts USA Senior Member Joined: 03/20/2003 View Profile Posted: 02/06/09 09:19am Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I do the same as MandKFarmer - and our canoe if 15'6" and our truck is an F250 - crew cab - short bed and we have done it this way for over a year now!

We've driven thousands of miles and many hundreds of miles of gravel roads with this setup. We'll likely be adding a couple of kayaks to our toy collection this year, so DH is thinking the back rack will be replaced with a factory-made roof rack, so there's more options to accommodate shorter length of watercraft. sue t.

It tracks well, paddles easily, but is a bit of a chore to fold and unfold. I'm getting better at it... Now that I have the fiver, it's easy to toss it into the bay. I haven't gotten good reports on how trackable inflatables are - probably depends on the make and design.
