Mounting 2 Kayaks and a SUP to 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe With Factory Roof Rack
Question:
I have a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe with original roof rack/bars installed. I want to be able to carry 2 kayaks and 1 SUP. Can I get a carrier to stack and put the 2 kayaks on their sides using one right half of the roof and then strap the 1 sup on the other left side stacked at the same time? or you have any other solution for me? like SUP in the middle of the roof rack and kayak on each side?

Expert Reply:
It is possible you may be able to mount a pair of kayaks on their side and your SUP on the factory roof rack of your 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe, but you'll need to measure the width of your bars to ensure you can use both a SUP carrier and a carrier for two kayaks
I recommend the Thule Stacker Kayak Carrier System # TH830 to mount two kayaks on the side and the Thule DockGrip Kayak and SUP Carrier # TH895 next to that if you have the room on your crossbars. The pair of kayaks will be mounted on their sides and the SUP will be flat so measure the width of your kayaks on their sides and your SUP flat and compare that to the width of your crossbars, which will give you a good idea of if you can potentially mount all three boards.
I have added links to video reviews of both carriers for you to check out.
