A portable water sport board rack includes a pair of generally parallel forks each including a plurality of elongated prongs that define channels for receiving and storing water-sport boards. The forks are transversely connected via a support cross member, and an extension member connects the cross member to a rotational unit. An elongated rod is secured to the bottom of the rotational unit at an angle, and the device is secured to a boat through insertion of the angled rod into a rod holder.

1. A portable water sport board rack, comprising: a pair of parallel forks, each including a plurality of coplanar prongs extending outward therefrom and defining one or more channels that are configured to receive a water sport board;a cross member having a first end that is connected to one of the parallel forks, a middle portion, and a second end that is secured to the other parallel fork;a rotational unit having a top surface, a bottom surface and a locking member;an extension member having a first end that is connected to the middle portion of the cross member and a second end that is connected to the top surface of the locking member; andan elongated rod having a first end that is secured to the bottom surface of the rotational unit at a first angle, and a second end having a shape and dimension that is complementary to a shape and dimension of a boat rod holder. 2. The rack of claim 1, wherein the top and bottom surfaces of the rotational device are rotatably engaged and are configured to rotate about each other in a 360 degree relative manner. 3. The rack of claim 2, wherein the locking member functions to prevent rotation of the rotational device when engaged. 4. The rack of claim 1, wherein the rotational device comprises a rotating shot-pin locking mechanism. 5. The rack of claim 1, wherein the rotational device is configured to transition the rack between a closed position wherein the forks are located within an interior section of a boat, and an open position wherein the forks are not located within an interior section of a boat. 6. The rack of claim 5, wherein the rotational unit is further configured to maintain the forks in a vertical position and the extension member in a horizontal position when the device is in each of the open position and the closed position. 7. The rack of claim 1, further comprising: a plurality of notches that are disposed along the second end of the rod, said notches being configured to engage a locking pin of the rod holder to prevent rotation of the device. 8. The rack of claim 1, wherein said angle is approximately 30 degrees relative to the bottom surface of the rotational unit. 9. The rack of claim 1, wherein said angle is between approximately 0 and 90 degrees relative to the bottom surface of the rotational unit. 10. The rack of claim 1, further comprising: a carrying handle that is disposed along the cross member. 11. The rack of claim 1, further comprising: a plurality of straps that are interposed between each of the prongs along a distal end. 12. The rack of claim 11, wherein at least one of the straps further includes a connector that is configured to repeatedly engage and disengage an adjacent prong. 13. The rack of claim 11, wherein at least one of the straps is constructed from an elastic material that is permanently secured to a pair of adjacent prongs at each end. 14. The rack of claim 1, wherein each of the parallel forks includes four individual prongs defining three parallel channels.
