How to haul 4'w x 6'h flyfishing pontoon (using tow receiver)???

[jimskiaforum]

My pontoon is in 48W x 72L and weighs only 50lbs. Cannot fit inside my tow-equipped '22 Telluride, Though it can be disassembled for hauling to lakes, the required time and effort are a major pain. I'd like to buy or make simplest clever device for hauling the boat on a "rack" which fits into vehicle's 2" receiver. (Like people use for bikes and the stuff). See attached foto. I envision setting it vertically, with pontoons facing forward. I could add a 4'wide plywood "deck" with 2 holes, for the pontoon tips to "nest in" securely. And off course I'll also need to develop means of strap-secure the rig. IDEAS WELCOME. Thanks, in advance!

Why not just get a utility trailer? I've been planning on getting one to haul my fishing kayak or when I want to carry more then 2 kayaks.

Thanks for response. Yes, util trailer will be my only option if I cannot make this work. It's just about clutter. I'd not be popular at home with a trailer stored in the yard.

Since the Ponton is only 4x6 and under $ 50, I'm tempted to first explore whether I can come up with a way to carry it in my KIa's tow receiver. - the way my friends carry 2-4 bicycles on a rack-

Still hoping someone may have seen this idea accomplished.
