We can get your 2016 Honda CR-V with a naked roof set up with a roof rack to carry a couple kayaks, and the option I really like is from Inno. The reason I recommend the Inno is because it uses long 54 inch crossbars, which not only gives you enough space for mounting two kayaks, it also makes mounting them easier, particularly on J-carriers like the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878.

The closer you can get the kayak carriers to the edge of your CR-V, the simpler it will be to put them in the carrier. I also like the Inno because they are high in quality but more economical than similar brands, so they are a really good overall value. The parts that make up the Inno rack that fits your 2016 Honda CR-V are the following:

- Inno Aero Crossbars # INXB138-2

- Inno Through Feet for Aero Crossbars # INXS250

- Custom Fit Kit # INK413

These parts are all that are needed, and will give your 2016 Honda CR-V a roof rack that is quiet, strong, and easy to use so you can hit the water with your kayaks.
