Do Thule racks block the LOFT Rooftop tent from being raised when installed?
The LOFT rooftop tent mounts to the Thule crossbars that come with the trailer; the crossbars do not interfere with the tent's operation. Since the crossbars are 79 inches wide, and the LOFT tent is only 50 inches wide, there is room for a kayak (or bike) on either side of the rooftop tent. You'd need to remove at least one of the kayaks to access the side of the LOFT to get in and sleep, but you would not need to remove the kayak racks (like a Hull-a-port), since they will sit to either side of the door.
