What's your favorite fender?

[Adrenaline1]

Anyone use the Mission Sentry fenders? Any good?

Yep. They work great, and store well.

[NautiqueJeff]

NautiqueJeff Do you have a link to those SeaDek fenders? I'm curious as well but google wasn't helpful in finding any.

Sure do.

Anyone use the Mission Sentry fenders? Any good?

i got 4 of the mission fenders on amazon for a really good price. I used them most of the summer and absoultely loved them. The only downside, the fender is made out of foam and i can forsee that against a crappy wood dock, the fender may start to get torn up. but so far so good.

We keep our boats out of the water on lifts, so only use fenders when docking at the bar, or when rafting up with other boats. The 8" Taylors work fine for what we need, but the problem is that my teenagers have no clue when it comes to keeping track of the fenders and lines when everyone is un-rafting at the end of the day. Solved that problem on the pontoon by going with black fenders with cyan/blue lines. Looks a little garish when in use, but nobody else takes them by mistake. Planning to get a set of lines and fenders in a "fun" color also for the Nautique this coming season.

Now I just need to find a way to solve the lake-wide teenager life jacket lost and found problem. We have accumulated more than a dozen life jackets left on our boats and at the house by others, and in exchange have lost a good half dozen of ours. Good positive give-away/take-away ratio, but its annoying.

Les Paul...Sorry couldn't resist.

That's a Gibson not a Fender. Haha.

used the exile balls on my friends boat yesterday. Inflate/deflate before/after use and they work great taking up very little space. I will probably get a set for myself to use in addition to my normal 5" black taylor made fenders.

Mission Sentry - I use these - They work pretty good, not quite as good as advertised, and overpriced.

However, I would recommend considering the Phender Pros...

Yes, it requires putting a hole in your hull, however, they look great, work great. You can pre align 3 fenders for your boat, and quick put them on either side. Less arguments on the boat because you are pulling up to the dock and forgot to get the fenders our, OR, you decide to change sides at the last minute.

$60 each, plus install price - you need 4 or 6 of these.

I just got a set of these. I am going to try them out and see how they do. Thoughts?

Jeff - have you used these yet? If so thoughts? And do they fit under the front seats for storage purposes?

[NautiqueJeff]

They seem to work very well, and yes, they fit under the front seats.

These are epic and come in four different colors.
Such a fan! https://www.wakemakers.com/mission-s...gaAsw8EALw_wcB

I have four for my 210, no more ropes! Thank the lord!
Enjoy!

I looked at the Mission fenders but wasn't sure how well they'd work with the Phender Pro setup? Also worried they look like they'd take up quite a bit of under seat space.

You are asking a loaded question very similar to asking what type of cleaning product you like . 100s of different opinions . I prefer the TaylorMade Big B fenders 8 x 20 . I want and love the girth of that fender . I have been very pleased with the results over the years . These work great with the Phender Pro set up. Many may bash this fender but I think there ain’t none any finer

In case anyone is wondering, here are some images of the SeaDek Defenders on a G21. Haven't used them yet...look like they may be a little small. I went with the 20"x8"x2". Will see how they do. Quality seems good. They come with the rope to attach them to the cleats. They also come with velcro straps to daisy chain connect them together, although I'm pretty sure 2x of these would be below water line and wouldn't work well. These easily fit under the seats, front and rear. I think the larger ones would have fit also, although probably not as well up front.
