Keep your boat fenders in place with FenderFriend
While there are several rope and strap fender attachments on the market, none address the most important issue: when a boat fender gets caught between the dock and your boat while docking when your boat is still moving forward. What usually happens is one of three things: the fender rope/strap breaks, your stanchion bends or breaks, or the fender eye rips out. The SHOCKLES® FenderFriend™ allows the fender to slowly rotate in place, protecting your boat AND everything else.
The FenderFriend comes in two styles (one for fenders with an eye at each end, FenderFriend Twin-Eye, and one for fenders that have a hole all the way through the center, FenderFriend Center Tube) and two adjustable sizes-small (adjusts from 12" to 36" in length), and large (adjusts from 16" to 72" in length) and four colors (royal blue, deep red, sterling silver or jet black). The 'ThroughHole' FenderFriend adjusts to 72" in length and fits all fender sizes. They clip on and off your stanchions, railings or cleats instantly and are guaranteed for 2 years against breakage.
The FenderFriend is made from 1" wide tubular nylon webbing that may not fit through very small fender eyes (smaller than 5/8") and is not intended for fenders weighing more than 20 pounds.
