Which Thule Kayak Carrier Can Carry 12 Foot Long Kayaks
Question:
I keep reading about the Thule stacker but I havent seen pics of it with 3 kayaks. We would be trying to carry 3 12ft Jackson Cruise or Jackson Bite kayaks. I dont see how you could get 3 on the Thule stacker. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The Stacker can carry up to 4 kayaks as long as they are 10 feet in length or less but since your kayaks are 12 feet you can't use this rack unfortunately. You'd have to use J-style kayaks like the JayLow part # Y04073 for each kayak as these do not have length restrictions.
Be sure to check the weight capacity of your roof and roof rack and be sure not exceed this figure with the weight of your kayaks and carriers. The Y04073 weighs 13 lbs.
