Recommended Rhino-Rack Kayak Carrier for 2015 Hyundai Tucson with Square Bar Roof Rack

Question:

I have already purchased a Rhino 2500 series roof rack for Euro Crossbar Part Numbers: DS126B,DK201 for a Hyundai Tuscon with naked roof. I want to now purchase the appropriate Rhino system for my kayak. Will be carrying a single kayak. Please advise.

Thank you for your roof rack purchase for your 2015 Hyundai Tucson.

Rhino-Rack offers some great options in kayaks carrier that will fit fine on your roof rack's square 2500-Series bars. If you like a rear-loading type carrier that lets you slide the kayak up onto the roof, then you'll like their Nautic carrier # RR571. As you can see in the linked video at the 3:10 mark, this rear-loading carrier means you don't have to lift the kayak's entire weight to load it, and it includes tie-down straps.

If you prefer a side-loading carrier then their # RR570 carrier will be your best bet. A video on this carrier is included too and it also includes tie-down straps.
