Sidewind Low Profile Fender 5.5 x 16 inches Mooring Protection
Protect the gunwale area of a low-freeboard boat with the Sidewind Low Profile Fender 327176. This 5.5 × 16-inch model is specifically designed for bass boats and other boats with low freeboard, where a conventional hanging fender may not address the same contact area.
The shaped gunwale arm rests on top of the gunwale. If the boat slides beneath a dock, this arrangement provides additional protection for the top of the gunwale, as well as placing the fender body alongside the boat.
A centre-hole arm design contributes to strength, while the oval shape helps prevent rolling. These shape details distinguish it from the straight cylindrical fenders in the range.
Compare the arm profile, gunwale shape and available space at the intended position before choosing this model. Use the stated dimensions to assess the fit for your particular boat and docking arrangement.
Choosing and using this product
For this version, size, diameter × length: 5.5 × 16 inches. Use that specific detail when comparing the item with your existing equipment or planned installation. Other sizes and configurations in the range should be checked separately rather than treated as equivalent.
Follow the product instructions for preparation, use and care. Keep contact surfaces clear of abrasive material where practical, and inspect attachment points during routine boat checks.
Check the supplied quantity and inclusions. A fender cover or accessory is distinct from the complete fender, and any separately listed line or fitting should be selected to match the intended use.
Retain the product size and model reference when buying replacements or extending a matching set. Colour helps identify the version, while the dimensions and attachment details determine its practical fit.
