I did mine with water skis but haven't had a chance to try it out yet. If you plan on using the skis after ice fishing season it might be a pain designing something to mount to it. I had to drill holes in mine so I don't think they are any good for anything else now. Don't make it too tall, that was my mistake. I had to shorten it because I thought it was too top heavy. I went and bought a husky tool chest from home depot that has a hinged top, bought some 2 x 12 s and made a platform 8" high to mount the box. The skis are about 3 foot wide so it fits in the back of the truck just fine. Got some 2" PVC and made some holders on the side of box for tent and augur. Just go with what works for you I guess, I made mine so it all comes apart. Good luck.
