Jon, I Googled ladder racks and found even the lightest racks out there will handle 800 lbs, not sure if you want to spend that kind of money. I my self in past years have built me a ladder/canoe rack out of 2 X 4's for much less money. I know I would have no problem my self putting a bass hunter upside down on a ladder rack and strapping it down with ratchet straps.



Sell the bass hunter on e-bay or craigs list, then go to Limit Out Performance Marine and buy you a Phoenix Bass Boat, I'm sure Russ could easily arrange delivery to Texas.

Thanks guys! from asking around sounds like it won't be a problem - except for gas mileage.  I'm towing a uhaul trailer and they said it cuts too close and you can't have anything sticking out. 

Rodney,  I'm buying used for like $100 if I can find one to fit... then I'll sell it later.  Wife won't let me get a boat right now... so I am too scared to sell the only one I got...

My friend has put his aluminum boat for years on a rack and he even has it where it will pull it up electrically.   It should be fine, just make sure you tie it down good.

Good luck in your travels....
