Kayaks Anyone!

An Innovated Kayak Rack  

We were at our local Mercedes-Benz Dealer picking up a set of All Weather Floor Mats, when

we saw a Winnebago View, which was in for service!  Mounted on the rear were two Seward Kayaks!  The mounting system was ingenious and this is a very interesting concept!

We have two Cobra Explorer Kayaks which would be nice if we could bring them  along on our Unity.  But unfortunately our Kayaks are 11'2" in length while the Seward Kayaks are 10'2".  

In addition the View has a height of 11'3" while the Unity is 10'6"; this means our Kayaks would be "sticking up" above the highest point of our Unity by almost two feet.  Unfortunately, this additional height would create concerns from wind resistance and vehicle clearance.

Too bad, as this set-up is a very ingenious!  Hmm, maybe we should trade in our Kayaks for shorter ones?
