Yes, we have a large range of products that will work for your 2013 Jeep Patriot.

Thule is a brand we recommend that makes both roof rack systems and paddle board carriers that fit your 2013 Jeep Patriot. It really depends what style roof rack you would want and how much you want to spend.

I recommend the Thule SquareBar Roof Rack made up of # TH712200 and # TH710401 along with the SUP Taxi paddleboard carrier # TH810001.

The Thule roof rack is designed for your Jeep and will attach to the existing rails and is the most economical of the Thule roof racks.The paddle board carrier can carry up to 2 boards and comes with a lock system to lock your boards to the carrier and the carrier to your crossbars.

Another option that might interest you would be the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack # TH7502-TH7502. These are a premium upgrade to the Thule square bar roof rack. The AeroBlade crossbar are more aerodynamic which will cut down on the noise that standard bars make while in transit. The AeroBlade bars are also designed at a lower profile which are aesthetically more appealing to the body of your Jeep. However, this roof rack has a higher cost than the Thule square bar rack.

Thule is a premium product that is designed to work with the OEM equipment that is installed already on your vehicle. In keeping with the same manufacturer for both the roof racks and the paddle board carrier will ensure an exact fit. Plus Thule uses the Thule One-Key System # TH450600 which can be installed on the the AeroBlade and the paddle board carrier to lock them to your bars using only one key.

I have attached videos on both Thule racks and one of the paddleboard carrier for you to view.
