What are boat fenders?

Boat fenders:
Boat fenders are essential marine accessories used to protect boats and other watercraft from damage. Boat fenders serve as a cushioning barrier between a boat and a dock or another vessel, during docking or mooring.

The primary purpose of boat fenders is to create a cushioning effect between the vessel and the dock, piers, or other boats, reducing the risk of scratches, dents, or more severe damage caused by collisions or rubbing.

Fender cover:
A fender cover is a protective cover that is placed over the fenders of a boat to prevent scratches, dings, and other damages. Mechanics and automotive professionals use fender covers to protect the fenders of a vehicle while performing repairs or maintenance.

Round fender:
Round fenders are inflatable or foam filled cylindrical cushions that are designed to protect the boat from damage caused by contact with other boats, docks, or pilings. You can buy round fenders from Plastimo, Nuova Rade, Lalizas, Talamex, and Goldenship.
Boat fenders are typically made from durable materials like vinyl, PVC, polyurethane, or rubber. They come in various shapes cylindrical, round, or flat, sizes, and colors to suit different boat types, sizes, and mooring configurations. The most common types of boat fenders include:

Cylindrical fenders: These are cylindrical and are often hung vertically along the boat´s sides. They provide excellent protection against impacts during side to side contact or when docking against pilings or other vessels.
Round fenders: Round fenders are spherical or ball shaped and are commonly used for boat to boat protection or when mooring against rounded surfaces. They can roll and adjust to the boats movement.
Flat fenders: These fenders have a flat or rectangular profile and are suitable for protecting a boat´s topsides when rafting up against a dock or for larger vessels needing broad protection.
Boat fenders are usually secured to the boat´s hull or railing using fender lines or ropes, which are attached through pre made holes or eyelets in the fenders. They are positioned at the points of potential contact between the boat and the dock or other boats, effectively cushioning and preventing damage.
The size and quantity of boat fenders required depend on various factors, including the boat´s size, weight, docking conditions, and the type of watercraft. Properly placing and securing fenders at appropriate heights along the boat´s sides or near potential contact points is crucial for effective protection and preventing damage to the vessel´s hull.
