We sure do!

I recommend the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with V-Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks # MAL93FR. This trailer includes the V-style carriers you were wanting to carry your kayaks, and the 400lb weight capacity will be more than enough for your two kayaks. It is important to note that this trailer fits kayaks up to 14' long.

The 78 inch Yakima Rack n Roll trailer #Y08107 is actually wider overall than its 66 inch counterpart, #Y08106. So it is not just the crossbars. Because the price difference between the 2 is minimal it would be more beneficial to just go with the 78…
