Graceful FenderHook©
|
|
|
|
The Graceful FenderHooks©
were designed for the smaller vessel, generally under 40 feet. They
are proportionally smaller, using 2" stainless steel shank and are 3" in
width. They are about 6 or 7 inches long. |
|
|
The hardware is drilled and tapped into
the shank |
|
|
Note the graceful curves in the design,
from wrapping around the wood rail to the rounded end with a stainless
steel grommet, hydraulically set at 3000 pounds |
|
|
The Stainless Steel Schaefer Cam Cleat is
smaller than normal 1/2" line is max. The Cam Cleat is affixed with a bolt
that is threaded into the stainless steel shank |
|
|
A fairlead is added to guide the fender
line and prevent marking the leather |
|
|
The fender line may either pass thru the
Stainless Steel Grommet or by-pass it to allow for the placement of a
fender board or extra fender as conditions dictate |
|
|
The leather can be oiled to help
waterproof the FenderHook© |
|
|
As with all leather products, maintaining
is necessary to preserve the "like new finish" |
|
|
Depending on the local conditions,
re-waterproofing or oiling with Neats' foot oil or bees wax every month or
so is necessary |
|
|
Tan leather gives a lustrous rich look
especially with vessels with teak accents; while black leather will
be slightly less maintenance intensive, will complement a vessels
contemporary appearance |
