The Fence Saver is a protective bumper from Taylor Made that measures 9 in wide by 36 in long. It secures to a fence or railing, so the boat meets the bumper and not the delicate aluminum fencing. Its job is to stop the dings that happen when a pontoon boat is rafted to a conventional hull boat. The model number is 31032.
Our take
The Fence Saver goes on the fence or railing, which puts the cushion where the dings happen when a pontoon is rafted to a hull boat. At 9 by 36 inches it is a long, narrow guard made for that aluminum fencing.
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.
