This custom bow fender is designed for boats that need protection beyond the bow alone. The fender is mounted on a rope that runs around the entire boat, helping protect the hull along the sides as well.
Each piece is handcrafted using natural hemp rope produced at a preserved traditional ropewalk, where rope is still made using historical methods. This gives the fender its authentic character, texture, and durability.
The fender is built in a classic braided construction with tapered sides for a clean and traditional fit along the bow. Integrated support loops make mounting secure and practical.
We also offer full customization. If you need a thicker rope, extended length, or custom dimensions for the mounted bow fender, feel free to contact us.
For best overall protection, we recommend combining this setup with side fenders.
