Roof Rack for 2017 Honda CR-V and Will the Rhino-Rack Nautic 581 work with Perception Tribe 13.5

Question:

Ive got a 2017 Honda CR-V with the flush mount roof rails. I also have a Perception Tribe 13.5 tandem kayak that I would like to carry. I am thinking about using the roof rack from Rhino-Rack items RRVA126B-2, RRRCL4, and RRRCP60-BK. I am trying to determine the optimal type of kayak carrier to use with those cross bars, and was considering the Rhino-Rack Nautic 581, RR581. However, im not sure if my kayaks hull shape would work well with this carrier or if there is a better alternative?

The Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRCL4, and # RRRCP60-BK is a great rack to use to carry your kayak and is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Honda CR-V. Now for a kayak carrier the Rhino Rack Nautic part # RR581 would work really well. It would fit the top channels of the Rhino Rack bars and also the angled pads would match the shape of the hull of your Perception Tribe so it would work well in that regard as well.
