Kayak Rack for Aero Crossbars
Question:
Hi there. I bought the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - BlackItem # RR73XR for my 2017 Honda Pilot. I need a kayak rack that could hold one or two kayaks that would fit on this rack. Can I get a recommendation? E-Trailer.com is a great resource.

If you are looking to carry two Kayaks I recommend the Thule Compass Kayak and SUP Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style, Post Style, or Saddle - 2 Kayaks or SUPs Item # TH890000. This carrier allows you to haul one kayak flat or on it's side and two on their sides and does take up a little more space on your roof when you not hauling the kayaks. The kayak will actually rest on the carrier rahter than on the cross bar itself. I also recommend the Thule Stacker Kayak Carrier System Item # TH830. This carrier allows you to carry one or two kayaks on their sides. When kayaks are secured to this carrier thay will rest on the crossbars. Both work with the crossbars you currently have. They are a clamp on style so these will not mount in the T-slot. They do not currently make a Rhino rack double Kayak carrier.
I have provided links to review videos so you can take a look at each one.
