To get your Eastport pram wooden boat on top of the OEM roof rack on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon I recommend using the Rhino-Rack Universal Load Assist # RR-RUSL. This uses brackets to hook up to your aero-style crossbars and then has an arm that swings out that you'll prop one end of your boat up on. I've attached a review video for you to check out.
With something this size you might consider using a watersport trailer like the Yakima Rack and Roll # Y08106 instead. This basically puts a roof rack on wheels and much closer to the ground so you don't have to risk lifting up your boat over your head.
If you go this route then I recommend using the Curt Trailer Hitch # C67JR, T-One Wiring # 118467, and the Curt Fusion Ball Mount # C45155.
