Expert Reply:
Carrying 2 Kayaks on the roof of your 2011 Mazda 3 with the Rola Sport Series Roof Rack 59832, may be possible, but you will need to keep within the capacity of the vehicle roof, see owners manual, and make sure the width of the Kayaks stacked together do not exceed the width of the roof rack. The length of the kayaks may also be an issue you need to take into account.
If all of the above conditions are met by your kayaks and vehicle, I would recommend using the Thule The Stacker, item # TH830, kayak carrier for carrying two kayaks in the smallest area possible.
