Question:
How wide are the bars? Want to lay two 32 inch wide kayaks side by side.

Expert Reply:
The crossbars on the Rola # 59799 Haul-Your-Might measure 65-1/16 wide, which means that your 32 inch wide kayaks would just fit. I'd also suggest a foam block type carrier, like # MPG152 from Malone. The blocks would slip over the ladder rack crossbars and provide a stable, scratch proof surface to carry your kayaks. You'll also need some tie downs like part # RRRBAS-RTD55P-RTD45P. Each tie-down kit includes 2 straps and two bow/stern tie downs. To gain a little wiggle room on the crossbars, you could stagger the kayaks on there a little bit, have one sitting slightly forward of the other so you'll have more crossbar width to work with.
