Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a 2015 Subaru Outback with Factory Crossbars

Question:

I just bought a 2015 Subaru Outback and need to invest in a new kayak carrying system. The one I used on my 2008 Subaru doesnt fit this new Subaru rack system. I have two touring sea kayaks. Approximately 45 lb each. 22inch wide and 17foot long. How do I fit them both on my factory roof rack??? Thanks!

For a kayak carrier confirmed to fit the factory crossbars of your 2015 Subaru Outback and would work well with your ocean kayaks that weigh 45 lbs I would recommend the Thule Hull-a-Port part # TH834.

You will need to check the roof capacity of your vehicle and be sure that you do not exceed that figure with the weight of your kayaks and these carriers that weigh 10 lbs a piece.

I attached a review video for these carriers for you to check out as well.
