Kayak storage?

[Jerseydevil]

We usually travel with 4 bikes on a Thule hitch rack. Now looking to add 2 kayaks. How/ where do you store kayaks whether inside or outside of your C.?

We had the same issue. You can spend thousands on a specialty kayak/bike hitch rack. Or you can do as we have done. We sold our kayaks and purchased inflatables. My wife wanted to go back to a stand up paddle board. So we opted for one of those from Sea Eagle and I purchased a two seater kayak from Sea Eagle. They fold up into a bag and we won't have storage issues.

We carry four yaks on a Thule roof rack atop the van. If we take bikes they go in the trailer

I use a Yakima trailer - pricey but really nice to use - saves lifting boats overhead and can also be set up to carry bikes.

I also have a good inflatable kayak (Gumotex Framura) that will fit in the rear compartment for those times when I want a kayak handy but don't want to pull the trailer.

I can also put kayaks on the roof of my Jeep when I take that along as a toad.
