Details & Specs

The Yowie 1600 ABS Rooftop Tent by 23Zero is for outback slumbers from the dual cabs and canopies to the tub racks and trailers.

Its raised X-frame design allows maximum interior headroom, while the zippered head vent controls air circulation for a restful and settled sleep. The two piece aluminium baseboard boasts a sturdy but lightweight honeycomb construction, while the memory foam mattress with velour cover provides a luxurious level of plush comfort out bush. Large side windows also maintain good ventilation, with full canopy covers keeping you dry indoors during adverse weather conditions. Be it days of outdoor indulging or simply a prompt stopover – the lift and fold out design coupled with the automatically operated entry canopy sees you set up by sundown and packed down by those last few drops of dew drying on the bonnet.

Swap the bright city lights with the magic of the outback night, owing to a stargazing roof window, telescope ladder, and a clear TPU window fixed to the flysheet. With internal storage pockets to keep the knick knacks intact, external shoe pockets to keep your boots from scooting, and enough room to keep your sleep setup stowed on the open road – this tent is rooftop royalty. Turn it on when off the grid, owing to the LED strip lighting with USB plugs and thanks to an externally fitted bungee cord to reduce bulging, you can pack down flat without the excess flap.

The 23Zero Yowie 1600 ABS Rooftop Tent is where durability meets dream time.

Roof rack mounting1 answer

Hey Guys, Have you seen this RTT mounted to a Rhino rack pioneer platform? Just wondering how it went, any issues? Cheers Luke

Luke - Heathcote Junction, VIC (1 year ago)

G'day Luke,

Rhino Rack recommends you get specific Pioneer Platform roof top tent bracket adapters, which you can find here:

Matress1 answer

Is the 65mm memory foam mattress the same as the Panthers 65mm HIGH DENSITY memory foam mattress?

no - Nowhere(1 year ago)

G'day,

They were previously different, but now 23 Zero has advised they are both high-density memory foam and 23Zero is moving away from memory foam mats due to comfort. The High-density mattresses are much more comfortable and durable. We are both currently working on updating our websites with this information.

Looking for a cover1 answer

Any idea where I can get a decent fitting cover to protect the plastic shed from sunlight?

Casey - Wodonga, VIC(1 year ago)

G'day Casey,

There's nothing off the shelf, but I reckon that's a job for your local acnavas an awning specialst.
They should be able to make up a cover for you that will do the trick.
A quick google shows there's a great business in Wodonga that has a few 5 star reviews, might be worth shooting them a message.

yowie tent question1 answer

If I wanted to mount the Yowie RTT onto the top of a box trailer. could I remove the ladder and fold the tent out flat across the top of my 7x4 box trailer. Would it still be possible to open the tent without the ladder to pull it out and fold back in.? A hard top on the trailer would be big enough to support the Yowie fully opened.

Malcolm - Merrylands West, NSW(1 year ago)

G'day Malcom,

It would make it quite difficult to set up without the ladder attached - check out our How to Set Up & Pack away video from the 2:40min mark to see how this works.
Hopefully that gives you a better idea on how you can make this tent work for your set up.

Yowie RTT2 answers

Is there a matching annexe?

Keith - Kelso, NSW(3 years ago)

G'day Keith,

Not at this stage, but 23Zero do have some plans on the horizon. We don't have a timeline sorry, its just more of a 'watch this space' type scenario.

Lauren - Snowys(3 years ago)

G'day Josh,

Yes, 23 Zero has now released the Yowie Privacy Shelter to attach to the Yowie Rooftop Tent. We don't have any info just yet for this arriving in our range but I have passed this on to our purchasing team to look into.

Kaya - Snowys(3 years ago)

Tent opening1 answer

Does or will the Yowie come with passenger (reverse) side opening? Our Ute canopy has the awning and "living" set up on the driver's side which will clash with the drivers side opening of the tent.

Gwyn - Bright, VIC (3 years ago)

G'day Gwyn,

The Yowie has one single doorway/entryway where the ladder is oriented in our product photos. The sides are mirrored, but these are both windows and not large enough to use as doorways.
The Yowie is not a directional tent, like most rooftop tents, you can mount it whichever way you like, to open it in whichever direction.
If you want the Passenger side access or rear access to the Yowie, you just attach it to your vehicle with the opening in your preferred direction.
Hope that helps.

Length of mounting rail1 answer

Hey how long are the mounting rails?

Nick - Cobbitty(3 years ago)

The are about 150cm long, Nick.

Ben - Snowys(3 years ago)

Dual cab 1 answer

Interested in trying to mount one of these entirely over the cab itself of my dual cab hilux without stretching over the canopy. Any idea if this would be possible or fit?

Casey - Wodonga, VIC(3 years ago)

G'day Casey,

Because the Yowie opens up on the long edge, you'll need to have it mounted lengthways - not across your vehicle.
The long edge is 155cm, so if your roof is that length or more the Yowie shouldn't encroach over your canopy space.
Hope that helps.

space between the mounting rails1 answer

What is the measurement between the mounting rails

Warren - Sellicks Beach, SA(3 years ago)

G'day Warren,

I've just checked out our display model in store, and from the centre of each rail, they're 69cm apart.

Hardtop setback4 answers

Hi - looking at mounting this on the back of a dual cab with a half height tub rack, so that the packed RTT top is sitting level with the top of the cab (less wind resistance). When the tent is raised, does the hard case lift vertically, or does it extend outwards? I have an Eclipse 180 awning mounted on the side of vehicle, and want to make sure it wont hit when tent is up (hard to tell from images). Many thanks

Mike - WA(4 years ago)

G'day Mike,

I must apologise here & admit I'm not 100% sure what you're asking.
Are you wanting to know how much the shell tilts back when its opened? The lid itself raises verticle, it doesnt move side to side but it is on a hinge so as it lifts it will tilt back. This can be observed in product images 7-10, which shows how the lid opens and extends.
If you have a 180 awning, this shouldn't have any effect whatsoever if you orient the tent so the ladder is over the back of the car.
If you want to go with the ladder off the opposite side of the car to the awning, you'll likely run into abit of trouble, but its hard to say for sure.

Lauren - Snowys(4 years ago)

Thanks Lauren - you got it, opening would be to opposite side of car (fridge / drawers slide out the rear of vehicle) so sounds like I might have some issues. Cheers Mike

Mike - Salter Point(4 years ago)

So - as an awesome twist of fate, Ben is going to be recording the product review for the Yowie this arvo.
Ive asked him to hold up a straight edge to the rear of the shell when closed and see if we can get a measurement of how far back the tilt goes.
If you're happy to wait abit, I can get back to you with that info tomorrow.

Lauren - Snowys(4 years ago)

G'day again Mike,

Bens taken some measurements for you - the top canopy tilts back by about a further 8cm, which isnt actually too bad. The top shell also lifts vertically for around 20cm before the tilt starts, so hopefully that means you'll be able to work out a way to mount the Yowie, and make it work with your set up.
I was actually climbing around in our new hardshell Roff Top Tents the other day, and the Yowie was my favourite - it's a nice space.

RTT Yowie1 answer

Does the mounting kit come with the tent? How much weight can the RTT take? I know it’s a 2 person tent, just wondering if it has a weight limit.

Ian - Trunkey Creek, NSW(4 years ago)

G'day Ian,

Yep - the mounting kit comes with the tent. As far as I'm aware the Yowie itself doesn't have a weight limit persay but it is quite alot smaller in overall size - 23 Zero have suggested the Panther if you're a bigger bloke and/or want some more functional space.
The tent ladder itself is rated at 150kg.
Hope that helps.

Solar panel mount1 answer

Can a solar panel be fitted to the ABS shell, how is this done?

James - Townsville, QLD(4 years ago)

G'day James,

Unfortunately its not ideal. 23Zero have released another similar roof top tent series called the Panther. This has a couple of raised ridges/channels on it & would be a much better option if you are wanting to mount panels.
