DETAILED FEATURES
Ultra-Light & Compact for Versatile Mounting
Weighing just 49.5kg, the Tuatara Crest is one of the lightest rooftop tents on the market. Its compact footprint makes it an excellent choice for smaller vehicles, trailers, and ute trays, while still leaving room to mount bikes or additional gear alongside it.
Blackout Fabric for Ultimate Comfort
The Tuatara Crest was the first blackout roof tent introduced to the New Zealand market. Featuring a 200D Ripstop Polyester fly, it blocks out sunlight for longer sleep-ins and reduces interior heat buildup. Combined with the 70mm high-density foam mattress, this tent ensures a restful night’s sleep, no matter where your adventure takes you.
Improved Ventilation & Condensation Control
The slatted base design not only reduces overall weight but also enhances airflow, helping to minimize condensation buildup. Large side windows offer better ventilation, and the anti-condensation mesh liner between the base and mattress provides additional moisture control for a dry, comfortable sleeping space.
Built for New Zealand’s Toughest Conditions
With a heavy-duty aluminium frame (19mm/25mm poles) and a 1000D PVC travel cover, the Tuatara Crest is built to withstand the harshest elements. The adjustable 2.3m telescopic aluminium ladder accommodates various vehicle heights, while cam buckle compression straps keep everything secure during transport.
