Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a 2011 Honda Civic with Naked Roof
Question:
Hi, I have a 2011 Honda civic. The roof is naked. I need to carry two Kayaks. Each weigh 42lbs and are 10foot in length. What all do i need to transport my kayaks?

First lets start with a roof rack, for the the Sportrack Roof Rack part # SR1002 would work well. This roof rack has a 130 lb capacity so it would be able to handle the weight of your two 42 lb kayaks, but you will need to consult your owners manual to determine the roof capacity of your vehicle and be sure not to exceed this figure either if it is lower.
Now for a kayak carrier confirmed to carry 2 kayaks that would work on the mentioned roof rack check out the SportRack Kayak Carrier part # SR5323. This would do well to carry your 2 kayaks. Check out the review video I attached.
