Expert Reply:
From what I could find on your Pelican Trailblazer 100NXT kayak, you should have no problem transporting it on your 2012 Subaru Forester using a Malone J-Style Kayak carrier like the Malone FoldAway # MAL98FR.
The Pelican Trailblazer 100NXT kayak has a pretty standard shaped hull and weighs 36 lbs., therefore the Malone FoldAway Kayak Carrier # MAL98FR will work to carry your kayak. The # MAL98FR has a weight capacity of 75 lbs.
You will need crossbars on your Forester to use the Malone FoldAway Kayak Carrier # MAL98FR. I have included two different crossbar systems, depending on if your Forester has rails that run front to back or not.
Rails that run front to back: 2012 Subaru Forester Roof Rack by Yakima
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425
- TimberLine Towers # Y33TR
No Rails: 2012 Subaru Forester Roof Rack by Yakima
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425
- SkyLine Towers # Y53TR
- Landing Pad 11 # Y00233
Either roof rack system can be locked to the roof of your Forester using the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07204.
