How To Haul 2 Kayaks On The Roof Of A 2021 Subaru Outback Wagon
Question:
Can I mount two pairs of the Malone Downloader J-Style Kayak Carrier atop a 2021 Subaru Outback? That is, so two boats can ride in parallel? Thanks.

Yes you can certainly install two sets of the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - J-Style - Folding - Side Loading # MPG114MD on your roof rack in order to haul two kayaks. Or you could look into Rhino-Rack 2 Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style - Folding - Side Loading # S512-S512X which I think would a better method of carrying 2 kayaks; this would save room on the roof and be a more affordable option.
For a roof that has raised rails running front to back you will instead want to go with Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack - Aero Crossbars - 58" # MPG216. This has a 165lb weight capacity and has built-in locks to secure the system to your roof. Now you can attach various accessories to the roof, such as two of the kayak carriers previously mentioned. I attached demonstration videos that you can check out.
