Question:

I am interested in the Malone SeaWing Kayak Roof Rack. My kayak is a Wilderness Pungo 100. Its a little wide compared to other kayaks. Will this rack fit my kayak?

Hey Karen! The Malone SeaWing Kayak Roof Rack # MPG113MD will work well with your Wilderness Systems Pungo 100. It looks like your kayak’s width is 30", which is perfect for this carrier.

The SeaWing’s saddle-style cradles are designed to support the hull from underneath, so they’re a great fit for wider recreational kayaks like yours. You're also well within the weight capacity of 75 lbs.

Where are you headed next with your kayak?

I finally had a chance to use my new Malone SeaWing kayak carrier with load assist on my Nissan Pathfinder. I'd give it a 3 out of 5 rating. Because the racks that come on the Pathfinder are oddly shaped (oval but narrower on the back side), the racks don't clamp on evenly and it's difficult to get them level. On the rear rack, because it's not possible to secure the rack level, the load assist makes contact with the hull. I have concerns about damage to the hull or the load assist. Finally, the load assist is short and doesn't make it to the end of the roof. I had to use padding (a towel worked fine) to prevent damage to the roof of my SUV. However, once I began the loading process, it worked well. It's very secure and I have no worries about losing the kayak when I'm on the highway.
