Kent Blair demonstrates how to transport a 10-foot Pelican Icon kayak on a 2020 Subaru Outback XT using the vehicle's built-in stowable roof rails, which fold flush when not in use to reduce wind noise and vibration.Watch The kayak weighs 42 pounds and straps to the rails with two cross straps; for longer trips, he adds bow and stern lines using Seattle Sports Sherpa Quick Straps, which anchor under the hood or hatch by laying the strap in the door seam before closing it.2:14 He notes that cars with hands-free trunk sensors must have that feature disabled before rigging a stern strap.3:16 The Outback XT's turbocharged boxer four-cylinder raises tow capacity to 3,500 pounds with a 350-pound tongue weight, versus 2,700 pounds on the non-turbo model.4:50 For moving the kayak on land, he uses a Railblazer Sea Tug cart, a five-piece breakdown design with articulating brackets that fit both the kayak and a 17-foot Grumman canoe.5:40 The Pelican Icon's adjustable foot pegs accommodate multiple paddlers, though he finds the ankle-twist foot indentations on the hull less practical than the peg system.8:29
