Quality is very apparent, construction will last

I'm very impressed with the inflatable fenders purchased from PYI. They are of an impressive quality that will easily last through many seasons. Plus, the idea is a great one and a huge space saver for a sailboat where storage is at a premium.

Awesome, superb quality

Very happy with the inflatable fenders we received. Not only is the quality top-notch, but it's an innovative idea to reduce storage space while on the move. We elected to get embroidered fender covers as well-- just awesome. Fabric is high quality and it looks like it will remain very durable over the years. Thanks!

Excellent

So much better than traditional fenders that crack and leak through the cheap fill valve. I have 8 of these premium fenders.

Fendertex

Aside from the long wait in delivery. These fenders are well worth the wait and cost. Very happy will purchase again.

Although the wait was long for them to be completed and finally shipped, it was well worth it!
These are great fenders. Easy to inflate/deflate and even easier to stow in their rolled up state, taking up far less limited stowage space. I’ll be ordering a couple more as I retire the old bulky fenders. Great product!!!
