Got some new boat fenders

[yard dog]

Just got a new type of boat fenders UPS, going try something different than the regular go to round fenders https://www.missionboatgear.com/products/sentry-fenders

Interesting - I like the colors.

Is that strap hanging off adjustable? And are they solid foam or inflatable like Taylors?

I’d love to see some pics of it on your boat - not sure I understand how it works based on the pics they show

I've used some flat type before. What they don't do well is roll as you pull into a slip but otherwise they were just fine.
I still have them, just rarely use 'em anymore.

Yes the strap adjustable and locks the fender into place , their is a video that shows how to them a little more money than round type but more user friendly and more protection for the side of the boat .

I see those becoming destroyed in a hurry if there is any fore and aft movement of the boat while it's contacting the dock...since they don't roll.

Have some of those flat type too , but are a lot more thicker and seem to add more protection and contour to the side of the boat and no more ropes to mess with just pull the straps to tighten and push on the fender to disengage the lock on the straps .

Daughter just gave me a pair of these Sentry fenders.......

Any body using these? any feedback??

Subscribed, how well do these work

 

[LazyLavey]

looks like they may work...

But you know how hard it is to give up your OG stuff...

Have had my current fenders for 30+ years and they've been handed down from the last 3 boats...

frankly they look like it

Probably why she got me these... lol
