Polyform G-5 Twin Eye Fender 8.8" x 26.8" - Classic Red

The Polyform G-5 Twin Eye Fender 8.8" x 26.8" in Classic Red is the go-to protection solution for serious boaters who demand reliability between their vessel and dock infrastructure. Built by Polyform U.S.—the industry standard in marine fender design—this model serves recreational anglers, commercial operators, and coastal cruisers who navigate tight slips, busy harbors, and alongside other vessels. Whether you're docking in a crowded marina or rafting up with fellow fishermen, this fender absorbs impact energy and prevents costly gel-coat and hull damage that can sideline your boat and drain your wallet.

The G-5 features a dual-eye design that allows flexible rigging configurations, enabling you to hang the fender vertically, horizontally, or at an angle depending on your docking situation and vessel type. Constructed from UV-resistant polymer material, Polyform's classic red finish maintains color integrity through seasons of sun exposure while resisting saltwater degradation—critical for both freshwater and coastal operations. The 8.8-inch diameter provides substantial cushioning coverage without the bulk of oversized fenders, striking the balance between protection and deck space that experienced boaters understand. At just 1 pound, the G-5 won't strain your fender lines or mounting hardware, yet its density and shape ensure reliable shock absorption when you're maneuvering into tight quarters.

Anglers and boaters who fish confined waterways, dock frequently, or regularly raft-up will appreciate the G-5's dependable performance and versatile mounting options. The twin-eye configuration works seamlessly with standard fender lines, carabiners, and existing dock hardware on center consoles, center-console fishing boats, cruisers, and bay boats. Installation is straightforward—attach your fender lines to both eyes and hang where contact is likely, allowing the fender to hang naturally between your boat and the dock or piling. For long-term coastal storage or high-traffic commercial docks, consider rigging multiple G-5 fenders along your hull's widest points to maximize protection where boats experience the most wear.
