Does Malone SeaWing Kayak Carrier Fit 3 Inch Wide Crossbars
Question:
Hi. Question about the Malone Seawing kayak saddle carriers. 1 My Volvo crossbars are 3" wide. Will this fit? I have read concern that the clamp attachments are narrow and may not fit on wider bars although they claim fit on most crossbars. If not, good alternative? thx

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, 3 inch wide crossbars are absolutely compatible with, and will allow you to mount, the Malone SeaWing Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # MPG107MD.
Three inches is only a bit narrower (by 1/8") than most aftermarket bars like those from Thule and Yakima, and in fact, the Malone aero crossbars are 3" as well, and the SeaWing # MPG107MD fits all of those crossbars.
The SeaWing is a nice choice for a kayak carrier as it is really easy to use and comes with the needed tie-downs so you don't have to make any additional purchases.
