Suction Cups To Hold Fenders?
I saw a video on youtube looked like they were using suction cups to hold the fenders on a boat with no rub rail when docking. Makes sense, especially so you don't have to keep jockeying the boat to get the fender to line up with the pilings based on cleat location. Anybody do this? If so, what brand suction cup do you use? I did a google search and everything that I found looked pretty cheesy.

I bought a couple of the suction cup shower handles and use those so far so good. Haven't used a lot though
|
JoAnn fabrics has 3 inch suction cups I've used for this purpose before, with smaller fenders.
|
I sent Gino a message about this very thing today. He has(had) a really nice setup on the Lambo boat. He may still be in Europe but hopefully he will chime in.
|
I got the ones that SkaterMike has in his 388. Very convenient.
|
I have not used them for fenders but for temporary handles when entering and exiting my boat. Try harbor freight. They have single and dual suction cups with handles. They are very strong.

Get some gopro suction cups... you can do ridiculous speeds with your fenders attached :)

Thanks Mike.
Yes we have the Line-Tender.com as well as a cleat mounted to a 4" Sea Sucker. TS |
