Kayaks, paddleboards and surfboards are too long to carry inside most vehicles, and doing so is not the safest or most convenient option even if they do fit. Hauling a trailer is another possibility, but that is also cumbersome and requires a bigger investment and a vehicle with a tow hitch. A rooftop rack is the most convenient way to transport watercraft and will keep your board or kayak safe and secure on the road. A purpose-designed rack also saves the interior space for passengers and reduces the chance of damage to your vehicle or vessel.
There are kayak carriers designed to fit different almost any roof. A temporary inflatable or foam pad system is the least expensive option, and these are quick and easy to install on virtually any vehicle. If your car is equipped with roof rails, a better long-term solution is a system with accessories specifically designed for boards or kayaks, including crossbars and purpose-designed kayak saddles or J-style cradles that are shaped to securely support the hull.
A stacker-style rack is the best option for hauling more than two kayaks. J-style racks allow for side loading and take up the least roof space. Saddle-style carriers are the most secure choice, fully supporting the hull during transit.
The five products selected below include options for all roof setups.
