If you are looking for a storage rack for the boats then I suggest the Rhino-Rack Large Storage Rack # RRRWHL for the 21-footer that has a 30-inch beam. It will also fit the narrower beam of the smaller boat.

Be sure to mount this to a surface that has sufficient strength for the weight of the boat and holder.

A specialized kayak like a 21-foot wooden stitch-and-glue Pygmy can be fairly lightweight for its length, but it still comes in at about 62-lbs.

Transporting two kayaks on one vehicle means you'll want to confirm the total combined weight of the two boats with all rigging and make sure your particular vehicle has enough roof weight capacity to handle the weight of the boats, the roof rack on the vehicle and also the weight of the particular kayak carriers you select. The total of all of these items must remain within the vehicle's rated roof weight capacity. A check of your vehicle owner's manual is a good place to start.
