Recommended Kayak Carrier to Transport 2 Kayaks on SeaSucker Monkey Bar Roof Rack
Question:
2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid Im considering getting the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack - Vacuum Cup Mount - 48inch Long Item # 298-SX6000B. We will be carrying 2 kayaks. Which Kayak racks would you suggest with this roof rack? Thank you very much.

Helpful Expert Reply:
I really like the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B that you referenced for your 2018 Toyota Camry because of its unique versatility and ease of installation/removal.
For a kayak carrier to mount to these bars I recommend taking a look at the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073. These durable cradles can support 1 kayak when in the J-style position or both of your kayaks when in the vertical position. This is a perfect choice for the Monkey Bars because of the included adapter that's designed specifically for mounting the carrier to round crossbars. This will prevent the cradles from sliding or twisting around the bars, which is what tends to happen with a lot of the other similar style carriers.
To load both of your kayaks using this system you will just need to add a second Tie-Down Kit # Y04031 (one is already included).
I have attached a short video demonstration that you can check out as well.
