Hello Jimmy, thanks for reaching out. The Yakima LowRider Kayak Trailer # Y82QD is going to have a 17.75" coupler height.
The 2024 Honda CR-V has a hitch height of about 13.5". This means you will want a ball mount with about 4" of rise for the trailer to be level when you tow.
What I recommend for this is the etrailer Adjustable Ball Mount # e66PR. This has up to 6" of rise or drop, so this would work great for the Yakima trailer, or virtually any other trailer you would want to tow with your CR-V.

Hey Jimmy, how did things turn out with the Yakima LowRider trailer and the adjustable ball mount? Did the 4-inch rise give you a level setup when towing with your CR‑V? Your update could make it easier for others working on the same combo.
