Majoni Narrowboat Flat Boat Fender

The Majoni Narrowboat Flat Boat Fender is a solid, non-inflatable PVC fender with a low-profile rectangular shape. At approximately 45 x 12 x 6 cm, it provides local hull protection while limiting the increase in overall beam—an important consideration in locks, narrow canals and tight moorings.

Unlike an air-filled cylindrical fender, the flat body does not require inflation or pressure maintenance. It is available in black, navy or white and can be positioned at known contact points along canal boats, narrowboats and other vessels requiring compact side protection.

What Is the Majoni Flat Fender Used For?

It cushions local contact points on canal boats and narrowboats where a conventional round fender would project too far from the hull. The flat profile is particularly useful when entering locks, passing through restricted waterways or mooring in narrow gaps.

What Is Included?

• One Majoni flat fender in the selected colour
• Integral mounting or rope points formed into the fender body

What Is Not Included?

• Fender ropes or chains
• Hull fittings or mounting brackets
• Additional bow, stern or side fenders
• Inflation equipment, which is not required for this solid fender

How Do I Confirm the Fender Is Suitable?

• Measure the available space at the intended contact point.
• Check that the 6 cm depth will not create excessive beam in locks or alongside structures.
• Confirm that the attachment arrangement holds the fender flat against the hull.
• Use enough fenders to protect all likely contact zones rather than relying on one local pad.

Construction and Design

• Solid non-inflatable construction
• Ultra-high-grade PVC
• Flat rectangular profile
• Approximately 6 cm projection from the hull
• Black, navy and white colour options
• No inflation valve or internal air chamber to maintain

Fitting and Safety

Suspend or secure the fender so its broad face remains between the hull and the contact surface. Use adequately sized lines and safe attachment points. The fender must not obscure navigation lights, outlets, ventilation openings or access to locks and deck hardware.

Maintenance

• Rinse away grit and canal contamination after use.
• Clean with warm water and mild soap.
• Inspect for cuts, deep abrasion or damaged attachment points.
• Check the securing line for wear and replace it when necessary.
• Store flat or supported to avoid permanent distortion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this fender inflatable?
No. It is a solid PVC fender and does not require an adaptor or pump.

Why use a flat fender on a narrowboat?
The low-profile shape adds less beam than a round fender, which can be useful in locks and narrow passages.

Are the securing ropes included?
No. Select suitable lines or fixings for the vessel and intended mounting point.

Can one flat fender protect the complete side of a boat?
No. Position enough fenders to cover the likely contact points for the berth and vessel length.

Can it remain permanently fitted?
It can be left in position where appropriate, but it should be inspected regularly and secured so it cannot foul locks, propellers or moving equipment.
