Fenders

Marine Boat Shop, specialist in nautical equipment and fittings, offers you a selection of fenders.

Fenders are essential devices on board boats to protect the vessel's parts from impacts and friction during maneuvers or docking. They act as a barrier between the boat and the dock, other vessels, or any object that could cause damage.
