Any idea when the Hobie milkcrate shown in this picture will be available?

I didn't see it listed in the latest catalogue.

Its in the final phase of production approval - maybe start shipping in winter is my best guess. Matt Miller might chime in on this when he gets a clear idea of the estimated delivery date.

Is the crossbar behind the new seat, the crossbar from the SideKick Ama set?

Thanks, Matt.

Another question with the AMAs mounted there. Will the anchor trolley line cause problems with the Amas?

Thanks

Just curious, but does that crate fit the smaller kayaks like the Sport and the Revo11?

The H-Crate will fit all models and other types of kayaks.

The anchor trolley an be set up to run under the SideKick arms.

Hey Matt, by chance is there a fabric cover that could somehow snap onto the bars to keep rain off the items in the crate?

If it can't get wet it doesn't belong on a kayak.

Not something we have designed into it, but you could easily have one made if needed.

I was actually looking at the YakAttack BlackPak before seeing this. Any idea on what the pricing will be on this?
