Expert Reply:
Since you are towing a fifth wheel and your boat is longer you'd need to first install a front hitch like the Draw Tite part # 65049 so that you could use the Rhino Rack T-Load part # RTL002 and a roof rack to carry the boat more out front so that it doesn't interfere with your boat.
Then for a single crossbar roof rack that fits your 2011 F-450 you would want the Rhino Rack crossbar part # RRVA150B, # RRRLKVAH and # DK190.
Then for a carrier for the Rhino Rack bars that would work great for your bass boat you would want the part # RR570.
