Recommended Kayak Carrier for a 2020 Hobie Outback Mirage Kayak
Question:
My 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee has rear antenna. I want to load 2020 Hobie Outback Mirage 12foot 9 inch L, 34inch W Center from rear and clear antenna. I have Mopar cross bars. Specs on Thule DockGlide say up to 75 lbs. Hobie Outback Mirage is 85 lbs empty. Will Thule DockGlide work or recommend another?

Expert Reply:
The Thule DockGrip Kayak and SUP Carrier with Tie-Downs part # TH895 has a 75 lb weight capacity so if the 2020 Hobie Outback Mirage weighs 85 lbs it won't work. Instead, I recommend the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier part # Y04091 which has a 150 lb weight capacity so it will be much better suited for sit on top kayaks.
The Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier should work just fine on a Mopar Roof Rack.
