ABSTRACT:
A personal watercraft carrier (10) is adapted to be mounted on a trailerable boat (B) to facilitate transporting a personal watercraft (P) along with the trailerable boat. The carrier (10) includes two parallel support rails (12), two parallel loading rails (14) connected to the support rails, and support structures (24, 26) for both the support rails and the loading rails. The carrier (10) may be connected to the boat (B) by the rail support structures (24, 26) with the loading rails (14) leading down to a position beyond the stern of the boat and slightly above the boat water line (W). A winch (72) associated with the boat (B) or the carrier (10) may be used to pull the personal watercraft (P) forward first onto the loading rails (14) and, ultimately, onto the support rails (12) where the personal watercraft may be secured for transport with the boat.
