Yakima I think has an extender bar you can fit on one side of one roof rack.
You extend the bar out, lift one end of the kayak up onto the bar (so the
kayak is leaning diagonally, one end against the bar, one end against the
ground), lift the other end up onto the car, then slide the extender bar in,
which puts the other end of the kayak on the car. It's really easy and I
think a much cheaper solution that a roll-up system. If you email me, I can
direct you to someone who uses this.

I am looking for a rack system to fit on a car or truck that you can pull
down and fasten your kayak to, then roll back on to your vehicle. My friend
saw this in a magazine once(possibly Canoe & Kayak), and was looking for one
for his wife who is unable to lift their boat on top of their car.
