Mission's TITAN Boat Tie Up Fender acts as a barrier between boats to prevent damage during busy tie-ups.
Spending an afternoon out on the hook is always more enjoyable when you are able to raft-up your boat with another boat so you can socialize and enjoy the anchorage together. One boat approaches another boat’s port or starboard and then the scrambling for lines and fenders usually begins.
As most boaters know, a raft-up typically requires the use of several lines tying the boats together stern to stern and bow to bow, along with a few well positioned fenders to keep the boats safely cushioned apart. It can often be a challenging process to align the boats well – requiring re-adjusting of lines and fenders multiple times to get the raft-up just right.
The raft-up process can also get messy – with multiple lines coming from one boat to another as well as ropes from fenders draped over stanchions. If you are not dealing with squeaky fenders potentially scuffing up the side of your boat, you are worried about fenders under pressure as wakes roll by causing them to pop out of place and damaging both boats.
This has been the way the boat raft-up process works for boaters for years… until now.
