At 10-1\/2 inches around and 30 inches long, it's got the size to cushion a real hull, and it ships pre-inflated so you can hang it and go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you run a boat in the 35 to 50 foot range, you already know a small fender just gets crushed flat and does nothing. The Taylor Made HullGard 1024 is sized for the job. It's a 10-1\/2 inch diameter cylinder, 30 inches long, with enough air volume to actually absorb the load when your hull leans into a piling or rafts up alongside another boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is smooth white vinyl. It wipes clean, it doesn't chalk up your topsides the way a rough surface can, and it holds up to sun and salt season after season. The oval cylinder shape rides well against a flat dock face or a round piling, and it hangs vertically or horizontally depending on how your cleats and rail line up. There's no molded seam ridge to leave a mark on the hull, which is exactly what you want on a boat where the gelcoat matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt ships pre-inflated, so there's no scrambling for a pump the day you pick up the boat. There's an inflation valve built in for air pressure adjustment, and that matters more than people think. Run it a little firmer for a heavy hull against a fixed dock, back it off a touch for a gentler cushion when you're rafted up. You dial it to the boat and the situation, and you can top it off later in the season if it softens up at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a single fender, so plan on hanging a few. On a boat this size you'll want fenders spread along the widest part of the hull and one up near the bow where she swings. Most owners in this length range run four to six of these depending on how they berth. Buy what covers your contact points and keep a spare in the locker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimple gear, done right. That's what you want in a fender. It's there to take the hit so your gelcoat doesn't, and the HullGard has the size and the vinyl to do exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-1\/2 inch diameter by 30 inch length, sized for boats from 35 to 50 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth white vinyl body that wipes clean and resists chalking your topsides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShips pre-inflated so it's ready to hang out of the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in inflation valve lets you fine-tune air pressure to the boat and the dock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOval cylinder shape rides well against flat dock faces and round pilings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHangs vertically or horizontally to match your cleat and rail layout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single fender so you can build out the exact coverage your hull needs\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 size boat is the HullGard 1024 meant for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTaylor Made sizes this one for boats from 35 to 50 feet.
