Side mount rack for kayak trailer

[FryDog62]

The supports in the picture are for a truck bed - I'm looking for suggestions of something similar that could be affixed to the side of a kayak trailer. It will be used to attach an 18 inch wide Yakima Topwater rod box on one side of the trailer for easy access.  Ideas/links?

Easy enough to fabricate, but mostly depends on the trailer and how it could be attached.

It probably is, although I’m living in temporary housing for a year, and most of my tools are in storage. And I’ve never made anything like that. If you want to volunteer, let me know 👍

 

Was thinking there was a solution like this out there with the rise in kayaking and all the various gear popping up..

Without seeing the kayak trailer there is no way to know or suggest anything.  I have seen all kinds of different kayak trailers out there.

Yes, it's a Right-on Ruff Trailer - pics attached. Open to any/all suggestions - TIA

If you lived closer ,I would gladly help you out....retired, so always looking for fun projects.  Look in your area, small fabrication shops are all over, many are small mom and pop operations, building the frame would be the easy part, how it would attach to your trailer may be the challenge.....good luck..

Picture defintiely helps. What I wou.d do is just try and raise the bars above the fenders then slide the kayak to one side of the rack and the rod case. Not sure how those bars are mounted though You also may be able to use some PVC bunks which would raise the kayak enough to put ot over the one fender then it would allow you room for the rod box without having something up in the air.  I am not a fan of having things high up if I don't have to.

Look at a set of side guides for a V bottom boat, they attach to the traiker frame with U bolts and come up the side. Might be enough to clear your kayak then a rod locker can be added on top.  Gonna take some simple tools to assemble, but no major fabrication.

Just a thought here, the pic did help !!
