Case of The Tuesdays: RV Owner’s Unique Articulating PWC Rack

 

Listen, we get it. Some folks just don’t want to tow a trailer behind them. It gets in the way, there’s all that extra strain on your tow vehicle. And let’s not forget all of the crazies out on the road seemingly hellbent to collide into your skis! That’s why we like Truckboss so much. Their truck bed deck systems are some of the best in the industry, and offer a whole heck of a lot of versatility and functionality to boot. But what we’ve seen here is something different altogether.

Although details remain a little fuzzy whether this was a homebuilt rack and lift system, or was actually something purchased from a manufacturer; but either way, this odd PWC lift and rack combination suddenly makes what normally would be a ladder on the back of a RV into an articulated, ram-operated launching pivot. Watch as the owner backs his camper into the water and slowly dispatches his runabout from the roof all the way down into the water. We can imagine the forces placed on this system when fully laden with fuel and storage, so we’re thinking this might be a do-it-yourselfer kinda deal.

Either way, it’s still pretty ingenious and clearly it works. We wonder how many other RV owners would be interested in such an item. All we gotta say is just make sure the straps are on tight!

  1. That’s pretty sick. Only thing other than the bridge that would concern me is saltwater in the rv motor compartment because the motor is in the rear.
