Great topic! I have been thinking about building one as well. That is a neat design. Let me know how it paddles.
The design I am playing with will mount longways on the front.

Just bought a kayak and was thinking of that very same thing.Mine is a sit-in type also but didn't want to keep my longbow in the hull.I'll probably mount mine long ways also.

Looks really cool. The only thing I see missing is tie down straps. Kayaks roll by design and maybe bows float, but with quivers? I had a bad experience with a fly rod in a kayak once. Thank God it was a spring loaded reel and I got it back easily.

Did you glue those caps on? You could easily make a rod holder for trolling with a couple of 45 elbows and probably an adapter to get the pipe size up a little. You would have to turn the rack like it is in the bottom picture to point the rods towards the back. Then you would have a combination trolling rig and bow holder.
