Taylor Made BoatGuard 6" x 22" Ribbed Fender, Black
Taylor Made BoatGuard 6" x 22" Ribbed Fender, Black — Product description
Taylor Made's BoatGuard ribbed fender gives you dependable dock-side protection in a compact 6-inch by 22-inch size. It inflates through a simple needle valve and hangs ready to take the bumps, so your hull doesn't have to.
Every boat needs fenders, and this Taylor Made BoatGuard is a straightforward one that just works. It's a round, ribbed vinyl fender measuring 6 inches across and 22 inches long, sized right for small to mid-size boats tying up at a dock or rafting alongside another boat.
The ribbed surface does two things. It adds a little give where the fender meets a piling or a hull, and it helps the fender grip instead of rolling away when the boat shifts. The body is black vinyl, so it hides scuffs and dock grime better than a white fender does.
You inflate it through a needle-type valve, the same kind you'd find on a basketball or soccer ball, so topping it off before the season takes a minute. Hang it from a cleat or rail with your own fender line. This one ships as a single fender, and most boaters run two or more per side for full coverage.

Frequently asked questions
What size boat is this fender right for?
At 6 inches in diameter and 22 inches long, it suits small to mid-size boats. For heavier boats or bigger gaps at the dock, step up to a larger fender or hang more of them per side.
How do I inflate it?
It uses a needle-type valve, the same kind found on a basketball or soccer ball. Push a standard inflation needle in and add air with a hand pump. Don't overinflate, it should keep a little give when you press on it.
Does it come with a rope or fender line?
No. This fender ships on its own. You hang it from a cleat or rail using your own fender line.
Is this one fender or a pair?
It's a single fender. Most boaters run two or more per side, so plan on picking up a few to cover your boat.
