Sterling Adventure Co. Light Weight Basin Aluminum Hardshell Rooftop Tent

More Space. More Strength. Built for Every Season.

The Basin is a full aluminum platform hybrid rooftop tent built for overlanders who want the durability and instant setup of a hardshell without giving up the space to actually live in it. At 132 pounds it is the lightest full aluminum platform hybrid RTT in its class, packs to a 7.1" profile that drives clean, and opens into a flat sleeping platform wide enough for two adults with 53" of interior height.

Inside, a 2" high-density memory foam mattress, full blackout canvas, and panoramic windows make every campsite worth staying at. A built-in power management system, dimmable LEDs, and an integrated diesel heater port mean you are not just sleeping out here. You are living out here.

Key Features:

▪️ Full Aluminum Shell, Top and Bottom: No composites, no honeycomb filler. Built to take washboard roads, mountain weather, and years of hard use without complaining.

▪️ Full Platform Interior: Opens to a flat sleeping surface for two adults with 53" of interior height. No wedge taper, no dead zones.

▪️ Sub-60 Second Setup: Release the latches, the shell opens, deploy the ladder. Pack-down is the same.

▪️ 7.1" Slim Profile: Sits low on your rack and drives like it is not even there.

▪️ Integrated Smart Features: Built-in power management system keeps devices charged. Dimmable LEDs set the mood. Integrated diesel heater port and optional insulated walls handle the coldest nights.

▪️ Awning and Crossbar Compatible: Awning mounts directly to the shell. Optional crossbars carry bikes, traction boards, and rotopax.

▪️ Organized Storage: Interior storage pockets and two hanging cargo bags keep gear off the platform and in reach.
