ABSTRACT:
A boat loading and storage apparatus comprising a load support frame having forward and rearward end for supporting a boat or similar load above a vehicle. The load support structure includes a pair of spaced apart adjacent telescoping beams adapted to be vertically pivotable, and horizontally rotatable, about a main support frame connected to a middle portion of a vehicle. A vertical support post is pivotally attached to the load supports forward end, and includes a lower end that is pivotally attached to a forward portion of the vehicle. During loading and unloading, the telescoping beams extend forwardly as the vertical support rotates downwardly toward a horizontal position. A pair of axillary supports have a ground contacting end and another end supporting the telescoping beams for supporting the latter. An attachment member is mounted for movement along a support member which in turn is mounted for movement along the telescoping beams. A lifting mechanism raises and lowers the main support frame. A winch is mounted on the main support frame to aid in loading and unloading various loads as well as raising and lowering the load support structure.
