5th wheel kayack rack

[plkitchen]

Is anyone aware of a kayack rack that can be mounted on the rear ladder of a 5th wheel. I know that there are receiver hitch racks available but my 5th wheel does not have a hitch. I might go with an inflatable kayack but I have read that some people have had issues with the inflatables losing air pressure. Any feedback wouldbe appreciated.

We use a chair ladder mount to hold the nose of our eight foot kayak and then put bungee cords around it to hold it tight to ladder. The second kayak goes on the bed.

Thule makes a rack that fits over the roof of the truck but requires a front hitch on the truck. I saw that and built my own version which seems to work well. I could probably find a photo if that would help.

The biggest problem with inflatable kayaks are they are SLOW and do not handle wind very well.

We bungee'd a Kayak to our ladder to get in home from Arizona. Ladders are however not made to have loads on them when traveling and will soon start having issues. Some put shorter 10'- ones inside while traveling.
