Need ski rack...

for my new caravan inherited from Missus. Have been
carrying my 10' Lami stuck outside passenger window
on my old Merc. Have got roof top bars running athwart
but need nice scissor-like ski rack. Will pay up reasonable
price.

John,

My thule racks are for sale on here somewhere. Not sure they will fit your vehicle, but do a search and check them out. They don't fit my new vehicle so they're for sale as a result.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

My favorite fishing vehicle was a caravan. Platform in the back high enough that you could fit milkcrates under. I made a easily removable support sytem out of plywood with interlocking cuts (5 pcs 48" x 16"), sheet of plywood over, you had access from each side door and the rear. Drilled holes in the factory hooks and strung rope across with plastic covered hooks that I made out of 3/16 soft steel wire. Rods stayed inside and with tinted windows and a soccer mom van they were pretty safe.
And it was a great spot to take a nap.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Caravan is the ultimate surfcasters vehicle... 3 years ago I had my wifes caravan, a company vehicle, while out fishing. I caught my personal best, and it was going to my father the taxidermist, but I had no cooler... The back of the caravan has a dipped down compartment... so I took my tarp, lined the back of the trunk, filled it with ice, and stored my bass in the back of the van for 24 hours...
