Hi all,
I just obtained a 14' aluminum boat and lack a hitch or trailer. After searching the net and here I found not a whole lot for roof racks meant for a boat of this size. I have seen homemade racks with wood,carpet,u-bolts,etc. and since I have most of these things already thought it would be a cheap and fun option.
My question is, does anyone here carry a boat of this size on their roof? If so, did you make your rack or buy one? Has anyone seen one? Any and all advice is appreciated. I know getting it on and off the roof is gonna be the biggest pain but I am ok with that to save me $300 or so for a trailer and hitch. I plan to carry my outboard and other gear in the back seeing as that's what wagons are for!
Cheers,
Dan
