Post subject:  Full size pickup rack recomendations for two Outback 12's

I purchased two new Hobie Outbacks recently and want a good truck rack system to haul them both and still have full use of my pickup box for other stuff when on adventures.We pull a 28ft Airstream and carry a CanAm Outlander 2up four wheeler in the pickup box.They are 33 inches wide so I guess they have to set at a angle?
I have a 2015 F350 Supercrew 8ft box.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Anybody???

if you are a bit handy you could build a rack for much much less than it would cost to buy one. I built this one (this is actually a duplicate of the original that termites got into after leaving it in the yard several years). this one has hauled a gheenoe, my outback with my wifes paddleboard and my TI. I use it while pulling the camper since I obviously cant have anything sticking out of the bed.

here is the first edition, when painted its hardly noticeable. I also take it off when not in use.

Not sure if something like what TracRac makes with the racks on a sliding rail would work for you. I have them and they are very light. You could slide the rear section to the front, load your Outlander then slide it back, then load yaks. It really is simple and quick, plus it's aluminum so it won't ever rust down the side of your truck.
