For your 2013 Honda Odyssey, I recommend two of the Malone DownLoader, part # MPG114MD. This J-Style Rack will help you load the kayak up onto the vehicle with the integrated ramps, helping to support some of the weight.
The J-loader also includes a complete boat, bow and stern tie down kit.
You can add some quick upgrades to the kit with the Thule Quick Draw, part # TH855XT and Quick-Loop, part # MPG308. The Quick Draw kit uses a pulley system to make the bow/stern tie down process quicker by eliminating the need to tie knots when tying the bow and stern down. The Quick-Loop lets you avoid running the ropes down and over the vehicle and hooking them into your hood by adding easy access reinforced nylon loops to your hood.
I've included videos of the Quick Draw and Quick-Loop so you can get a better idea of how they work.
