The Polyform G-3 is a twin eye fender measuring 5.5 inches by 19 inches. It belongs to the maker's G Series, which has ribs for extra strength. Polyform designs the G Series to give protection and stand-off for boats from 10 to 40 feet long, keeping the hull clear of a dock or a neighbouring boat. This one is the Burgundy version.
Our take
The G-3 has ribs for extra strength in a 5.5 by 19 inch body, and Polyform designs the series for boats from 10 to 40 feet. That is a wide range, so check the fender's size against your own boat's length before you count on it.
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.
