Fenders are a crucial piece of boat equipment that protect your hull from hitting the dock or other boats. But what protects your boat from the fender? A fender cover made from soft yet tough Boat Blanket material keeps the fender from chafing and scratching your boat’s hard-coated finish. A cover also shields your fender from the elements, prolonging its life and saving you money on replacements.
In our how-to video, we show you how easy it is to sew your own fender cover. This is a great project for beginners or anyone wanting something stress-free and easy to sew. With basic tools and supplies and a sewing machine that can handle this thick fabric, you’ll have a fender cover made in an afternoon — with time to spare!
Boat Blanket is the perfect fabric for fender covers. It’s a solution-dyed nonwoven, thick polyester. It’s easy to sew, UV and chemical resistant, solution-dyed and mold/mildew resistant. It doesn’t fray when you cut it, making it even easier to work with, as you don’t need to hem the fabric.
