Recommended Roof Rack and Carriers for 2011 Ford Flex with Naked Roof

2011 Ford Flex - Naked Roof. I need cargo space on the roof. I would like to eventually buy accessories for Kayak and Paddleboard. What do I buy? How do I install?

Expert Reply:
For your 2011 Ford Flex with naked roof, I recommend starting with the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # RR82YR. This will give you the custom fit you need and will give you a clean factory look. It also includes the locks to secure your investment. The installation instructions are linked to assist.
For cargo, you may want to consider a roof basket like # TH859XT-8591XT or a roof box like # TH6357B.
For your kayak carrier or paddleboard carrier, I recommend using the Inno Locker Watersport Carrier - Locking - Clamp On - 1 Board. I've linked a video to assist with installation and features.
