A fender hanging system makes all the difference

Attaching fenders is part of docking, but it can often be a time-consuming job. With Fastfender’s fender hanging system, it suddenly becomes much quicker and easier: within just a few seconds, your fenders are securely in place. No hassle with knots, and easy to adjust whenever necessary.

Secure your fender without knots

Fastfender is a fender hook that eliminates the need to tie clove hitches. Instead of tying a clove hitch every time, you attach the Fastfender to the railing with a simple twisting motion. Your fender is immediately held securely in place and can be repositioned just as easily.

You will notice the convenience most when docking. Sailing solo, dealing with stronger winds, or approaching the dock faster than expected? The last thing you want to worry about is tying knots. With Fastfender, each fender is in place within seconds, leaving your hands and attention free for what is happening around the boat.

Frequently asked questions

  • Does it save much time compared with the traditional way of attaching fenders?

    You can expect to save around 20 seconds per fender. Tying a clove hitch can easily take 22 to 25 seconds, while with Fastfender, a fender can be attached to the railing in just 2 to 3 seconds.

    If you use four fenders, you save more than a minute. That may not sound like much, but it is exactly that minute you would normally spend rushing around the boat while the dock gets closer.

  • Which Fastfender model is right for my boat?

    Fastfender is available in four models: Sail, 25, 32 and 40. Which model is right for your boat depends on factors including the type of boat and the diameter of your railing. Compare the differences and find out which model you need.

  • Can I operate the system on my own, or do I need help?

    You can easily use Fastfender on your own. In fact, that is when you will notice the difference most.

    When sailing solo, there is no one else to take the helm for a moment. You need to react quickly and keep an eye on many different things at once. With Fastfender, you can carry several fenders at the same time and attach them to the railing with one hand. This saves time and makes docking a more relaxed experience.

  • Do I need to drill any holes for installation?

    No, there is no drilling involved. You simply clamp the fender hook around the railing, which means no screws and no holes in your boat. This also makes it easy to reposition. Not happy with the position, or docking with the other side of the boat against the dock? Simply slide or reposition the hooks in seconds.

  • What material is Fastfender made from?

    Fastfender is made from PA6 AWAMID, a high-quality plastic that is resistant to UV radiation, salt water and temperatures ranging from -20 °C to +40 °C. Each hook can support up to 150 kg, which is more than enough for even your heaviest fender.

    So whether your boat spends the entire summer in full sun or stays at the dock throughout the winter, Fastfender retains its strength and functionality. This means you do not necessarily have to remove and store the hooks at the end of the season.

  • Will the system damage my railing or gelcoat?

    Absolutely not. In fact, it helps protect your boat. Fastfender stays securely in place without damaging your railing or gelcoat. Because you can easily position your fenders at the correct height and they remain exactly where you want them, they provide optimal protection while docking.

Experience the convenience for yourself

With Fastfender, hanging your fenders no longer has to be a last-minute job just before docking. Simply grab the fender, attach the Fastfender to the railing and within seconds everything is securely in place.

No more hassle with clove hitches or loose fenders, and less rushing back and forth across the boat. Just a smart system that makes one of those recurring jobs on board a whole lot easier.
