Default Hard carrying case?

I'd like a hard carrying case to fit my boat into for when I travel. Short of building one out of plywood, is there anything already made that anyone can recommend? My boat is 44 inches long, and most cases that I've found are a bit shorter than that.

Those are really nice, but way overkill for what I want.  I'm looking more for a Rubbermaid type tote.  I think I found one that may work:


I might have to angle the boat a bit diagonally to get it to fit though.

Yes, that's why I said it'd have to angle it diagonally to make up the 1.3 inches! According to my calculations, the diagonal of that box should be47.76 inches. Hopefully that leaves enough room to account for the width of the boat.

I'll see if I can find one of those totes, and it the boat doesn't fit, I'll just return it and probably build something myself. Thanks!
