Best Dock Fender For 2008 RLXI


zigzag

Recommended Posts

I just picked up my new 2008 RLXI and was wondering what fenders everyone is using on their RLXI's. I have the old round Taylors from my I/O, but I have seen the new low freeboard fenders that look like they would work better on the RLXI http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/store...&storeNum=5. Any suggestions for fenders or kwik adjust fender locks?

Thanks!

ZigZag,

I have found that those bouncy balls that your kids hoop around the driveway on work the best. The inflate from about the size of a basketball to a beach ball, they have a handle to tie a line to and you can adjust to any situation. The reason I like them is they hold the boats about a foot apart and work the same on the dock, the rubber is soft and will not mark up the boat. Cost about $12.00 at Target. ( hipitty hoop balls? ).

I also use the low freeboard "bass boat" type fender also. Work great for 2 ski boats tied together so their rub rails don't end up on top of each other in waves. If you don't have anything to tie to you can use suction cups to hold them in place.
