The roof rack I recommend for your 2015 Forester with the raised side rails is the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack, part # JA7973.

This aerodynamic roof rack is a low-profile system that is quiet and has a great look. Locks are built in to help deter theft, and the roof rack has a matte black finish.

For carrying a kayak I recommend the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier, part # S512. This carrier folds down when not in use. This carrier includes tie-down straps to secure the kayak to the crossbars and bow and stern tie-downs to secure the kayak to the vehicle.
