Post subject:  Help with 17T Cradles

Greetings!

First post here and have a question regarding the 17T cradles. I'm going to be purchasing a 17T soon and want to ensure the trailer I have used for previous kayaks will work with the 17T and it's cradles.

Does anyone have installation instructions for the cradles? I can't find them anywhere on the interwebs.
What is the proper spacing for the cradles on the 17T?
Will the cradles work with the thule aero bars pictured below?

Thanks for the help. Can't wait to get the "kayak." Just want to make sure everything is in order before I pick up the beast.

Your Hobie Dealer should bend over backwards to help you with any questions you have.

The cradles came in today and I got them installed. I ended up putting them on my Thule xsporter cross bars. Those bars are wider and support the cradles better. In case anyone else is looking for the installation instructions to help with trailer setup, as I was, I have attached the instructions that came with them. Hobie recommends the cradles be spaced 70 inches apart if not set up with the dolly hanger.
