1. Yakima Bowdown Kayak Rack. This thing is packed with so many features there is no way we could leave it off our list of the best kayaks racks on the market. The rack will accommodate just about any hull shape. In addition, the rack was designed so you can store other goodies right along with your kayak, essentially creating an all in one container.

2. Thull Slipstream XT Kayak Rack. This is one of the best kayaks racks on the market, because it will fit just about any vehicle, even the small compact ones. With a sliding base and custom mounting hardware, this is one rack that should accommodate anyone.

3. Malone Horizontal Kayak Carrier. Those who have larger kayaks might consider this to be on top of the list of the best kayaks racks out there. Just a couple of the many features include high grip sling saddles that are felt padded in the rear, universal JAWS mounting adapters and the capacity to hold a kayak of 90 pounds.

4. Contour Kayak Rack by Swagman. And yet another on our list of the best kayaks racks we’ve come across, this one was meant for sea kayaks. The vertical application is tough enough to keep any kayak safe during transportation, and the tie down straps come with the rack which can save you a little money.

5. Yakima BigStack Water Sport Rack. We chose this one to round out our list of the best kayaks racks because it’s a biggie. With the ability to carry up to four kayaks at a time or even a whitewater raft, this is the ultimate in water sports transportation. A Steelcore construction and Hullguard pads really make this one shine.
