The Polyform F11 is a blue, twin-eye, European style fender measuring 21.2 inches in diameter and 57.5 inches long. Polyform lists the F series among the strongest fenders it makes. The ropehold area is solid rubber, and the walls are described as even, with no thin spots or voids. The series is designed for rough commercial and recreational use.
Our take
At 21.2 inches across and 57.5 inches long, the F11 is a large body, and its ropehold is still solid rubber, so the part the lines load is not just inflated wall. Even wall thickness with no thin spots or voids is the other claim.
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.
