Taylor Made 31015 Ribbed Vinyl Boat Fender 5 x 18
Taylor Made 31015 Ribbed Vinyl Boat Fender 5 x 18 — Product description
The Taylor Made 31015 is a white ribbed vinyl fender that keeps your hull off the dock and off the boat next to you. It's a round 5 inch by 18 inch size that suits smaller runabouts, dinghies, and personal watercraft. It inflates through a standard needle valve, so topping it off takes seconds.
Every boat needs fenders, and the Taylor Made 31015 is the honest, no-drama kind. It's a round ribbed fender molded from tough marine vinyl, measuring 5 inches across and 18 inches long. That's a handy size for smaller boats, tenders, and PWC, or as the extra fender you keep in the locker for raft-ups and fuel-dock stops.
The ribbed surface does two jobs. It adds a little grip against pilings and hull sides, and it helps the fender shrug off scuffs instead of showing every mark. The white vinyl wipes clean with a rag and keeps looking right season after season.
Inflation is through a needle-type valve, the same kind you'd use on a sports ball, so you can top off the pressure with a common hand pump in a few seconds. Hang it horizontally or vertically off a cleat or a rail. When you're done for the day, it stows easily in a locker. It's a simple piece of gear that quietly saves your gelcoat every time you come alongside.
