I've been looking for a boat ,canoe rack for our Big Bear . The lads who I know that have them made them themselves but surely somebody makes a commercial one and I have heard of them but can't find them . All help would be appreciated in my quest . Thanks .

If I were going to do this I would custom make mine as well. I would probably go with something that u-bolted on the racks but wouldn't overlook the option of 2" reciever connections on the front and back. With the rack connection idea one could fabricate more points to mount things such as oars, life vests, helmets, coolers, etc.

Good luck on your quest.

Thankyou kindly lads and this is exactly the type of rigup I'm looking for . I don't know why though montana jacks has their carrier shown in a pic but yet nothing comes up as far as specs when you try to follow through on the site . :dontknow: For the places I travel in the back country I need to add one bad . LOL It should come in handy for other things too . Thanks again for the help . I like this site . ;;t;;

I noticed the same thing about the Montana Jacks link. You may try calling Montana Jacks and see if the still carry it.

Here is another...http://www.quadraxatv.com/featured_en.html

And...http://www.motovan.com/

I believe Motovan is a Canadian company.

Now that last one I would buy. There are plenty of options for adding on. I'm not sure of the overhead clearance, but one might be able to rig up something to keep the oars in place under the top rack (overhead).

Check out Kimpex as well

Dang you lads are great . Thanks again . I'm really liking the look of the motovan and kimpex carriers the more I look at them . I see with the kimpex one you can even add a cover although that part is not high on my list but may be nice for clients if I return to guiding .

And you shall GW . LOL Soon as I get the carrier here to bolt on but in the meantime I'm resizing some pics that I will post in the Yamaha forum ASAP of other things the BB 400 does around here . You young bucks are always impatient . LMAO .

I think I would have purchased the same one. It looks like it will be more stable and offers more options for latching things on. I can't wait to see the pics of the rack and the "other things" the BB 400 does.

I know ,I know Buster W . I picked it up yesterday and assembled it in about an hour or so and took some pics but I can't get it attached to the bike without figuring something out because that frigging big queens chair/ combo utility box that I have for the bride to sit in just doesn't allow for enough room to attach the carrier . I see they have a kit that supposedly will address this situation but for a $100 bones I think I will think about it for a bit . :dontknow:

I'll put up some pics of the assembly later today but there won't be any of the carrier attached to the bike unless you come up here today and fabricate me something lad . LOL. I'll supply all material needed , good steak , beer , hot tub and pool if you bring the know how . LOL

While your at it though you can look at some pics in the Yamaha forum on here to see how big the brides ,queen size chair is and what I have to work around . I could remove the dang thing but it is handy and comfy for her and even me if I'm riding backseat after I have had a few . LOL
