Nail it along the edge of a dock or piling and you've got a soft, commercial-grade bumper between fiberglass and hard lumber. Simple, tough, built for saltwater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever watched a boat rub up against a bare dock edge, you know how fast gelcoat gets chewed up. Taylor Made's Side Guard puts a cushion right where the contact happens. It's a 10-foot length of double molded PVC that runs along the edge of a dock, a piling, or a slip, giving your hull something soft to lean on instead of pressure-treated lumber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe profile measures 1-3\/8 inches wide and 3-1\/2 inches tall, so it wraps the corner of a standard dock board and stands proud enough to actually take a hit. Double molded PVC means there's a tougher outer layer over a more forgiving core. That's what lets it shrug off sun, salt, and years of boats bumping in and out without cracking or going brittle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting is straightforward. This is a nail-mount guard, so you run it along the edge and fasten it down through the flange. No special hardware, no adhesive cure time to wait on. Most folks knock a 10-foot section on in a few minutes with a hammer and a handful of galvanized nails. Line up the next section and keep going if you're edging a longer face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Anyone with a fixed dock, a floating dock, or a slip where boats come and go. It's commercial grade, so marinas run it on high-traffic slips, but it's just as at home on a private dock protecting a single boat. And it works both ways. It saves your hull, and it saves the dock edge from getting hammered too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing to keep in mind. It's sold as a single 10-foot length, so measure your dock edge first and grab the number of sections you need to cover the run. For a typical slip finger, one length often does it. For a longer face, plan on a few.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-foot length covers a slip finger or a stretch of dock edge in one piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble molded PVC construction stands up to sun, salt, and constant contact without going brittle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-1\/2 inch height gives boats a tall cushion to lean on, not a thin strip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-3\/8 inch width wraps the corner of a standard dock board\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNail-mount flange installs fast, no adhesive or cure time needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCommercial grade, built for high-traffic marina slips and private docks alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtects both the hull and the dock edge from wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Taylor Made reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the Taylor Made 46013 Side Guard?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's a 10-foot length with a 1-3\/8 inch width and a 3-1\/2 inch height.
