When securing your fenders, make sure to stand on board, directly in front of the contact point you are protecting from. Decide on the position and height of your fender, and securely tie the fender in place. The type of knot used to secure your fenders is a personal preference, but we’re going to highlight the three best knots for fenders that have been found to be the most effective.

Fenders are one of the most important items a boat owner can have onboard, for vessels of any size. They are a key component in protecting vessels of any size from making contact with a dock, or even another vessel. How a boat owner chooses to secure their fenders is almost as important as having them altogether. Making sure that the proper type of knots is being used to secure the fender and ensure maximum protection is vital.

While many boat owners use fenders to protect their vessels from unwanted contact with docks or other objects, some require a bit of additional protection. In this situation, a fender board is an excellent option. Fender boards are a tool used to protect your boat when docking against pilings or seawalls. They act similarly to a larger fender, providing a barrier that buffers the hull from pilings, seawalls, or other potentially damaging components.

Traveling through a lock is one of the more unique experiences of boating and not one every boat owner has a chance to experience. Because of this, if you find yourself having to pass through a canal lock for the first time, it can seem a bit overwhelming. The truth is, there is nothing to fear. Several thousand boats pass through canal locks safely each year, and with a bit of background knowledge, you can be prepared to do the same.
