• Does Kayak Bow/Stern have to be Tied Down Using Thule Hull-A-Port on a 2015 Ford Fusion
  You should tie down the bow and stern of a kayak on any vehicle including a 2015 Ford Fusion. The Thule Hull-A-Port # TH834 does not include the additional tie downs but you can use etrailer tie-down kit # e36ZR if you do not already have straps or rope that you use. I like this kit because it comes with foam anchors that can close in your hood or hatch and provide an easy way to attach the straps without harming the vehicle. This is a great way to tie down the bow/stern of the kayak.

If you go with the Inno carrier, I recommend the etrailer Kayak Tie-Down Kit # e36ZR to serve as your bow/stern ties. The Inno kayak...

• Recommendation for Carrying Two 10 Foot Kayaks on 2006 Toyota Highlander w/ Factory Roof Rack
  Thule does indeed offer a kayak carrier that can handle more than one kayak. You'd want their Stacker, part # TH830, which can carry up to 4 kayaks that are up to 10 feet long. Thule confirms that the Stacker is compatible with your factory roof rack. The Stacker includes bow/stern tie downs, and one set of straps to secure one kayak to the carrier, but you'd want an additional set of straps. I highly recommend the etrailer tie down kit # e36ZR.

• Is There an Adapter for the Rhino Rack Nautic to Be Used on a Back Rack or What Option is There
  I do have an alternate option for you, but there is not an approved adapter/screws that allow you to use Rhino-Rack Nautic Roof SUP or Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # RR570 with crossbars larger than 3-7/8" wide x 1-3/8" tall. You can use the Malone Rack Pads for Crossbars # MPG314, which will wrap around your square bars. You would then need a tie-down kit like the etrailer Kayak Tie-Down Kit # e36ZR to secure your kayak to the rack and carrier.

• Recommended Kayak Carrier for Carrying 2 Kayaks on a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban with Factory Roof Rack
  I suggest the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073. The JayLow is a J-style/post-style carrier that will hold both your kayaks on your roof. The posts, straps, and tie-downs all have padding to protect your Suburban and the kayaks. I confirmed the JayLow will fit your factory crossbars. Also, with kayaks that heavy you should verify the weight limit of your Suburban's roof and the roof rack in the owner's manual.

• Recommended Kayak Carrier For 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer With Factory Roof Rack
  Since the dimensions of the crossbars on your 2006 Trailblazer roof rack are not given, the best way to find a kayak carrier that will work for you is to take a quick measurement of the crossbars. Measure the height and the width of the bars. If your crossbars measure smaller than 3-1/2 inches wide and 1-11/16 inches tall I recommend the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier, part # Y04073. This carrier can handle an 80-lb kayak and folds down when not being used. The carrier comes with tie-down...

  I confirmed with Lockrack that the Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier - Canoe, Kayak, or 2 SUPs - Side Loading - Universal Mount # LR54FR is able to hold a 16 foot canoe. Just make sure your canoe is no wider than 48" and is under 175lbs. You would likely be fine without use of straps, although I would probably add some straps for reassurance since it is a rather large boat and Lockrack does suggest adding straps for longer boats.

• Will Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier fit on a 2014 Kia Soul to carry 2 Kayaks
  According to the manufacturer, the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073 will fit your 2014 Kia Soul with factory roof rack.

• Fit of SportRack J-Stacker Kayak Carrier # SR5511 on Thule AeroBlade Load Bars
  SportRack is actually a division of Thule. The J-Stacker Kayak Carrier you mentioned is compatible with crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide, since the Thule AeroBlade crossbars are 3 inches wide, the J-Stacker will indeed fit. The J-Stacker does come with bow and stern tie downs, but I would also recommend the Thule Hood Loops, part # TH529. These anchors attach to a bolt under your hood to attach the tie downs quickly. If you need additional straps, I highly recommend the etrailer Tie-Down...
