Recommendation For A Roof Rack And Kayak Carrier To Carry Two Kayaks For A 2006 Toyota Prius C
Question:
I have a 2013 Prius C... bare roof. How can I carry two kayaks? I'm an amputee and have a teenage daughter. My Dr said this will be awesome for my core... please help!!

Based on your information, I recommend getting a roof rack and kayak carrier that fits your 2013 Toyota Prius C.
For a roof rack, I recommend the Yakima Roof Rack System which uses the following parts:
Round 48 Inch CrossBars, Item # Y00408
Baseline Towers, Item # Y28TR
Round Bar SL Adapter, Item # Y03536
BaseClip Fit Kit for Towers, Item # Y06135
BaseClip Fit Kit for Towers, Item # Y06179
I recommend adding Lockable Same Key Systems (SKS) locks cores, Item # Y07204, to keep the rack locked and secured.
After adding the roof rack, you can use the Thule Stacker, Item # TH830, to carry your kayaks. The Stacker can hold up to 4 kayaks and works with Yakima bars. Your kayaks cannot be longer than 10 feet. If they are, use Item # Y040732.
Make sure to check the owner's manual or with Toyota to determine the weight capacity of your roof.
I have attached links to videos for you to check out.
