Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for Rockwood Hard Side Pop Up
Updated 08/09/2020 | Published 01/26/2016 >
Question:
We are looking for a rack that will carry a kayak on the top of a Rockwood Hard Side Pup-up camper. This is not your traditional tent pop-up. It has hard sides and when the roof is up it is an A-frame. The roof does not have a track on it.

I pulled up pictures of your Rockwood Hard Side Pop-up camper and when the camper is in the down position you could have a roof rack like the Swagman Roamer LT Roof Rack for Pop-Up Campers and Camper Shells # S80510 installed on it as it more or less has a standard pop up roof when down.
Only real difference is that when it is up it has an A shape.
To carry the kayaks on this roof rack I recommend the Malone Deluxe Foam Block Kayak Carriers, part # MPG152. These foam blocks fit over the crossbars and are right at 18 inches long. They have tie-downs included.
