I have access to an 26" motorhome this summer :D

the motorhome doesnt have any roof racks so how can i haul my kayak (16") safely on the roof

any suggestions and ideas will be greatly appriecated

thanks
 
First ask the onwer if you can make any modifications, like add a rack! Can the roof be walked on? Will the onwer allow anthying to be stowed on the roof? Adding a kayak to the roof is adding risk for the onwer. Additional insurance might be needed. Work with the onwer.

If modifications will not be allowed consider using suction cups to hold on a rack.
The hardest trick will be finding secure hold down points for the straps.
