Hey Regis,
Yakima just lists it with the assumption that you'd be using a kayak carrier and not laying the kayaks directly on the crossbars since they're shorter and don't overhang the mounts. If you don't have a carrier you can use the Rhino-Rack Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # S512-S512X to haul both kayaks. You will want to check the capacity of your roof to ensure it can handle the weight of the kayaks as well.
