Question:
round bars with baseline towers and a boatloader to haul 74 lb fishing kayak? will the roof of my 2012 Honda Accord coupe with sunroof be able to hold such a heavy kayak w/o a stretch kit? all i see on the yakima site is an option for a naked roof

I can't directly recommend a roof rack setup for your kayak as the 2012 Honda Accord Coupe may not have a high enough weight capacity.
If you can verify the weight capacity of your roof with Honda, you can use the Yakima roof rack system consisting of the following parts.
Round 58" CrossBars # Y00409
BaseLine Towers # Y28TR
RoundBar SL Adapter # Y03536
BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06119
This rack is rated for 100 lbs and you'd also need to add locks # Y07204.
