Kayak Carriers for a 2018 Subaru Outback and 2 Kayaks
Question:
We have a 2018 Subaru Outback. We have used a Yakima system on a 2007 Subaru Forester for 11 years. That will no longer work on the 2018 Outback. We have two 12 1/2 ft. kayaks that we transport from the great lakes to the gulf coast. Do you have a system that will meet our needs?

Expert Reply:
Yes, there are numerous Yakima kayak carriers that will fit the factory roof rack on your 2018 Subaru Outback. I recommend the JayLow # Y04073 so that you will have 1 carrier for both kayaks. Provided that the combined weight of the kayaks does not exceed 110 pounds this carrier is a great option. I have linked a video review of it for you. If the combined weight of the kayaks is over 110 pounds then I recommend using 2.
The JayLow includes bow and stern tie downs as well.
