Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbar and Travel Speeds
Question:
I have a 2016 GMC Yukon Denali and have purchased a Yakima roof rack system. I wish to ensure the tent doesn’t leak with heavy rain and/or high speed interstate travel. Is the vinyl cover sufficient to ensure dry results if properly installed and configured. Is there a waterproof cover specifically for the #Y07437 to give me comfort of a dry unit after inclement weather while driving? If yes, does etrailer have such cover in stock? I couldn’t find it in your site of accessories, nor at Yakima.com.

Expert Reply:
The Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars, # Y07437, is a fantastic product. This heavy-duty tent sets up in minutes and provides solid footing and steady support on varying terrain. Yes, if properly installed the vinyl cover does provide sufficient results to ensure things stay dry in harsh weather. While there may always be an element of concern in the most extreme conditions, under most situations, including a rather substantial rain combined with driving speeds, you can be confident that all will remain dry.
Don't forget the BedSheets for 3 Person Yakima SkyRise Tents - Grey, # Y07428 and the Annex, # Y07422, makes a good changing room option. Happy Camping.
