In order to prevent clearance issues while turning you'll want to carry the kayaks as far forward as possible. To do this you'll need to support the kayaks on a load extender over the hood using a front mount hitch. The rear of the kayaks can then be secured over the roof with a roof rack. I have attached a list of parts for this setup below.
