Trailer rack for bikes and sup board I am looking for a bike and paddle board rack that goes behind my 2014 hyundi Santa fe. I have a moon roof so I do not want it on the roof. Any suggestions?

The best option to transport both your SUP board and bike behind your 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe is with the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer # Y08106. There is not a standard hitch-mounted carrier that can accommodate both a SUP board and bike.
This extremely versatile trailer features adjustable 66 inch crossbars that can be used to mount various accessories like paddle board and bike carriers. It has plenty of space for your bike and board with room to spare if you ever expand or decide to go on some adventures with friends.
For a bike rack that will work great on this trailer I recommend the Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103 that will secure your bike by its front wheel without any frame contact and features an integrated cable lock to help protect your investment.
Then for a SUP carrier I really like the Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier # LR54FR. This carrier can hold up to 2 SUPs and its integrated straps will secure them in place.
I have attached a couple video demonstrations on these carriers that you can also check out.
To pull a light trailer like this you will need to add a trailer hitch, wiring harness, and ball mount/hitch ball combo if you don't already have them.
Starting with the hitch for your 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III # 75776 if you have the GLS or Limited model or the Draw-Tite Class III # 75772 if you have the Sport model. Both custom hitches will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation and provide plenty of capacity for the loaded Rack and Roll Trailer.
For a wiring harness I recommend the Curt T-Connector # C56332 (which is a fit for the GLS, Limited, and Sport) that will simply plug into factory ports under the vehicle. This will provide you with a 4-Way connector to connect with the trailer to power its signal lights.
Lastly you will need a ball mount and hitch ball. The Curt Class III Ball Mount # C45036 should be a good option that includes the needed 2 inch hitch ball that the Yakima trailer is compatible with. I have included a great article on selecting a ball mount that you can check out as well.
