The Polyform F11 is a twin-eye, European style fender in black, 21.2 inches in diameter and 57.5 inches long. It is one of 12 sizes in the range, and it carries 528 lbs of buoyancy. The eyes are 1.1 inches in diameter, and the ropehold is solid rubber. Polyform describes the wall thickness as even and calls these the strongest fenders it manufactures.
Our take
At 21.2 inches across and 57.5 long with 528 lbs of buoyancy, the F11 is a big fender, and its solid rubber ropehold puts strength where the lines load it. Polyform counts this range as the strongest it makes.
From our buying guide
Polyform says to use at least three fenders when docking, and Taylor Made's rule of thumb is one for every 10 ft of waterline per side. Both makers hedge their size charts, so allow for your boat and where you moor.
Check before you buy:
- The size is on that maker's own chart for your boat's length.
- Your fender line suits the eye, since Polyform says too small a line can cut through a vinyl eye.
- You'll inflate it to the maker's figure, since two makers say over-inflating voids the warranty.
