Boat Bumpers (also called fenders) are protective cushions used to prevent damage to boats, docks, pilings, and other vessels during docking, rafting, or close-quarter maneuvering. They absorb and distribute impact energy, reducing abrasion, dents, and structural damage.
Sizing and placement:
Size by vessel displacement, freeboard, and typical docking conditions. Larger, heavier boats require larger/denser fenders.
Spacing depends on hull length and docking method; fenders should cover areas where lines and cleats meet the dock, and protect alongside points that will contact the dock or other boats.
Mount fenders at varying heights to match typical dock or neighboring vessel surfaces. Use chafing gear and proper lines to prevent slippage.
