My Marine Trader 50 carries 6 ea Taylor Black “Big Boy” 10x26 fenders with hole in center so I can mount them horizontal or vertical. No covers then are a useless expense. How hard is it to clean black fenders? Also have 2 ea Round A-5’s (White) fill in curvature of trawler bow nicely on a lock wall. Also have 3 ea A-3’s boat is well protected any where. Love Taylor “life time warranty” only replaced one in 17 years at West Marine no questions asked. A-5 has maintained air pressure 17 years. Yes they are big but big boat needs big fenders.
