Hi CSR,
It was suggested to me by another member to keep a log here of things I do to my boat.
Great idea, here we go.........
In my humble opinion, any vessel over 24-6 feet with deck rails is a candidate for fender racks. Mine had none and I knew I wanted them.
Found a sweet deal on a used set sized for my fenders and immediately threw away the universal, loose fitting SS mounting straps they come with.
I love these rubber cushioned clamps to secure various hoses etc on boat, bike and auto projects.
Used 3 clamps per side with new SS fasteners and after a couple minutes of fiddling with fitment and placement, they were ready to be snugged up.
Look great, rock solid with no marring or rattling.
Then it was cocktail time.
