A friend has an expansive property of 3000 acres and about 10 lakes. He’d like to find a roof rack with load stops to attach to his UTV to transport W/C canoes to some of the less accessible lakes. Due to the ruggedness of the trails, pulling a trailer is not a great option.
Internet searches have not given many options.
Ideas?
 
The page at https://www.polaris.com/en-us/off-road/ranger/models/ indicates that these come with a variety of different roof configurations so the options will depend on which one your friend has. The ones with a simple roll cage would probably be the easiest to adapt to a rack that is designed to clamp on to an existing automotive roof rack. Good luck,

Benson

Dave,
I have built one for my ATV. Being the electrician, I bent 1/2" rigid conduit risers and Unistrut crossmembers, all tacked in place. I had some sleeves welded on my racks so I can pin it for easy on/off removal. It works great. Galvanized. Had it about 15 years now. I'll try to take some pics and send them your way tomorrow.
