Expert Reply:

Yes, Yakima roof racks - including those that use BaseLine towers - are compatible with the Thule kayak carrier you asked about:

- Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier # TH834

It's important to keep in mind what crossbars you have though, because if they are areo bars like the JetStream you will also need the Watersports Adapter # THXADAPT11.

Your other option would be to go with a similar carrier that fits any style crossbar, without an adapter, the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073 or etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878.

All of these carriers do come with tie-down straps so you don't have to purchase those separately.
