Abstract
A bumper fender includes a slip sheet disposed to be in contact with the dock when the boat is moored. A cushion sheet is connected to the slip sheet and disposed between the slip sheet and the boat hull. Elongated straps are disposed at the upper end of the bumper fender so that the assembly may be suspended along a portion of the boat hull. The cushion sheet and the slip sheet are connected at their upper ends so as to allow relative vertical movement between the slip sheet and the cushion sheet so as to minimalize the amount of slipping or rubbing action against the boat hull.
