Taylor Made Super Gard Inflatable Vinyl Boat Fender, 5.5" x 20", Ruby Red
The Taylor Made Super Gard Inflatable Vinyl Boat Fender in Ruby Red is a 5.5" x 20" cylindrical fender built to protect a boat's hull from contact with docks, pilings, and other boats. It is made in the USA from marine-grade vinyl that resists UV exposure and salt water exposure, and it is recommended for boats 15 to 20 feet. The fender is made with seamless one-piece construction and a ribbed side design that minimizes roll along the dock, keeping the fender in place instead of spinning against the hull. Both ends are double-molded in black for extra strength at the high-wear points where the fender contacts pilings or other hard surfaces. A molded-in valve accepts a rubber football needle for easy inflation, and the fender ships already inflated. Two eyelets are built into the fender and accept lines up to 5/8", giving multiple options for rigging it to a rail or cleat. The vinyl carries a high gloss finish in Ruby Red and is guaranteed for the life of the boat against splitting or bursting. This is a single fender (line not included).
