Taylor Made Large Fender Cover, Navy | 9206N
Taylor Made Large Fender Cover, Navy | 9206N — Product description
Bare vinyl fenders do their job, but they can leave black scuff marks on your hull and chalk out in the sun. This Taylor Made cover slips over your large fender to stop both. Navy polyester, sized for the Hull-Gard, Super Gard, and Big B fenders you've probably already got on the rail.
Bare vinyl fenders do their job, but they've got two habits nobody loves. They chalk up and fade in the sun, and they leave black scuff marks down the side of your hull every time the boat rolls against them. This Taylor Made cover fixes both. It slips over your large fender and puts a layer of navy polyester between the vinyl and your gelcoat.
It's sized for the large fenders most boaters already have on the rail. That means the Hull-Gard and Super Gard 10-1/2 inch by 30 inch fenders, and the Big B 10 inch by 26 inch. If yours is one of those, this cover pulls right over it. One cover ships per order, so count your fenders and order accordingly.
The fabric is a woven polyester that's built for life on the water. It's UV resistant, so the fender underneath stays out of the sun and doesn't chalk out the way a bare fender will after a couple of seasons. It shrugs off abrasion when the fender grinds against a piling or a rough dock edge. And it's mildew resistant, which matters if you tend to stow fenders in a wet locker between trips.
Putting it on takes about a minute. Deflate the fender a touch if it's a snug fit, slide the cover down over it, then top the air back up so the cover sits tight and smooth. The line runs through the same way it always did, so you hang it off the rail or a cleat exactly like before. Nothing about your routine changes except the marks that used to end up on your boat.
Navy is the practical color choice here. It hides the dirt a white fender picks up from dock lines and tire marks, and it looks sharp against most hull colors. If you're tired of scrubbing scuff marks off the topsides after a weekend at a busy marina, this is the cheap fix that saves you the work. It won't turn a cheap fender into a premium one, but it will make the one you own last longer and treat your hull better.

Frequently asked questions
Which fenders does this cover fit?
It's sized for large Taylor Made fenders: the Hull-Gard and Super Gard 10-1/2 inch by 30 inch models, and the Big B 10 inch by 26 inch. If your fender is one of those, this cover pulls right over it.
Does a fender come with the cover?
No. This is the cover only. It's made to go over a fender you already own or buy separately.
Do I get one cover or a pair?
One. It ships as a single cover, so count how many fenders you want to cover and order accordingly.
What is the cover made of?
Woven polyester. It's UV, abrasion, and mildew resistant, which is what you want for something that lives outside on the rail.
Why bother covering a fender at all?
Two reasons. A bare vinyl fender leaves black scuff marks on your hull, and it chalks and fades in the sun. The cover puts fabric between the fender and your gelcoat and keeps the vinyl out of the UV.
Can I store it wet?
It's mildew resistant, so a damp locker won't ruin it. Even so, let it dry out when you can and it'll last longer.
