Can I Fit Yakima SkyBox NX Skinny Along With Kayak Carrier On Roof Rack?

Question:

I go skiing and kayaking, sometimes on the same trip. Can I fit the SkyBox NX Skinny and a kayak on the same roof?

You bet, Alan. That’s exactly the kind of versatility the Yakima SkyBox NX Skinny Rooftop Cargo Box (Black Carbonite) # Y93QD is designed for.

Since its only 26-1/2inch wide, it leaves enough room on most standard crossbars like a 54inch or 60inch bar to carry a kayak rack alongside it. We’ve seen setups where customers pair it with the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073. Just make sure your crossbars and roof have enough total weight capacity for both the box and your kayak. The Skinny’s low profile also helps reduce wind drag, which is a nice bonus when you’re hauling both.

Where do you usually travel to on these trips?
