In order to carry kayaks on the roof of your 2014 Honda CR-V you will first need a roof rack if you do not already have one. The best option we have for this is the Yakima JetStream Crossbar System which is composed of part # Y00426, part # Y28TR, part # Y06148, and part # Y06152. This system has aero shaped crossbars which will work to reduce both wind noise/drag and they have integrated channels which will accept most channel mounted accessories.
You should have no problems using this system with the carriers you already have but if you need to haul three kayaks at one time then you will need a different style of kayak carrier. I like the Thule The Stacker part # TH830 which will allow for four kayaks to be carried on the roof of your CR-V. This system also comes with all of the tie-downs and straps you need to secure these four kayaks.
I have attached a review video of the roof rack and kayak carrier for you as well.
