back in the day before i knew better i would haul 2 stand ups in my standard chevy from here to parker a couple times a year. All i did was laid 2x6 across the notches in the bed and put a sheet of plywood over it and screwed lenght of like 3" pvc down to it for the jetskis to sit on.. I had to elevate it to get 2 skis in (above the wheel wells) and luggage underneath. Since you'r only hauling 1 i'd think you could just take a section of ply wood and screw pvc to it and leave it on the floor. If this is something your gonna do alot you might want to look into one of those cheap lifts that sits in the conrner of your bed with a hand winch on it and some straps to help load it.
