Kayak Carriers that Can Fit Top Channels of Thule TracRac Ladder Racks

Question

Question:

I have the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack, with the slightly larger crossbars would the Thule DockGrip or the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero work best for a ~17foot fiberglass kayak. Semi-light weight. TH895 or TH849000 Thank you!
