Taylor Made 643114 BoatGuard Fender 4 x 16 In, Black
Taylor Made 643114 BoatGuard Fender 4 x 16 In, Black — Product description
The Taylor Made BoatGuard is a small ribbed vinyl fender, 4 inches by 16 inches, that cushions your hull against docks and pilings. Sized for dinghies, PWCs, and small runabouts, or as a spare on a bigger boat. Inflates through a needle-type valve.
Every boat needs a few fenders aboard, and this Taylor Made BoatGuard is the small, hang-anywhere kind you reach for again and again. It's a 4 inch by 16 inch ribbed vinyl fender, sized right for dinghies, PWCs, small runabouts, and as an extra cushion on a bigger boat when you're rafting up or squeezing into a tight slip.
The ribbed surface helps it grip the hull instead of rolling, and the tough vinyl shrugs off scuffs against pilings and dock edges. Black hides marks well, so it still looks decent after a season of hard use.
Inflate it through the needle-type valve with a common sports-ball needle, top it off to a firm feel, and hang it from a cleat or rail with your own fender line. One fender per pack. Most boaters keep two or three of these tucked in a locker for the day you end up docking somewhere you didn't plan on.
