Innovative Product of the Week- Fender Tender

by Sail-World Cruising on 21 Mar 2010
Fender Tender SW
Having to move fenders quickly is often necessary when manoeuvering a yacht in close quarters, and this product is particularly convenient if you have stainless steel rails for life lines.

So now, to move, adjust and re-secure fenders, there's a convenient, cost-effective solution, and the boat will also look better and tidier than having knots with messy line endings.


The original, patented Fender Tender II from Davis Instruments enables crew to quickly and effortlessly clip fenders to rails, lifelines, side wings windows, cleats or anywhere else they're needed.

With no more tying and untying, the handy Fender Tender II simplifies boat fender handling and relocation. Perfect for docking, owners can swiftly reposition fenders to ensure their craft is protected.

It's been designed with any environment in mind, so is suitable for harsh conditions, being constructed of tough, sun-resistant plastic for years of maintenance-free use.

A railing lock feature firmly grasps rails from 22mm to 25mm in diameter, while the new, serrated lifeline lock provides added safety. Designed for use with 6mm to 9mm nylon line, it helps streamline fender presentation and tidy up onboard.
