Start with measuring how wide is your camper.
Some of them are 8' wide and when jacks and mirrors don't count, the cargo might make it requiring "Oversize load" signs.
If camper is 7-6" you might have legal space for a board.
For my 16' canoe I made rack on the roof.
When camper had factory railings on the rear, I put long piece across tor canoe support and than I add bracket right behind front skylight. That required drilling 2 holes and I put lag bolts with the heads on ceiling side. My canoe goes over AC, while with flat boards you might try something else.
