Elevate your dock protection today with Slammer Marine—where quality meets innovation.
The Fleece Fender by Slammer Marine offers a refined layer of protection and aesthetic polish to your dockside fender setup. Designed with a curved face and built with precision, this fender measures 5 inches in height and 3 inches in thickness. It’s suitable for both vertical and horizontal applications, making it a reliable choice for various docking environments. Whether mounted along pilings, fender boards, or other contact points, this fender delivers consistent protection while maintaining a soft-touch surface. Like all Slammer Marine products, the Fleece Fender features a modular three-part design that delivers reliable, in-position protection without the hassle of traditional hanging fenders.The internal core consists of sturdy, impact-resistant foam engineered to absorb repeated pressure without collapsing or deforming. Unlike air-filled or inflatable options, this foam remains in place and retains its shape, providing long-lasting functionality in high-traffic marine settings.
Surrounding the core is a marine-grade fabric cover that is UV- and abrasion-resistant. This outer layer protects the fender from constant exposure to sun, salt spray, shifting tides, and wave action. The cover is offered in your desired length, ensuring flexibility and a tailored fit for your specific docking setup. What sets this model apart is its use of fleece fender covers made with Polartec®, the marine industry’s trusted standard for fleece performance. Polartec® fabric features a heavy loft construction specifically designed for enhanced abrasion resistance. While the material is sun-sensitive and may fade in color with exposure to sunlight, this cosmetic change does not affect the fleece’s structural integrity or durability. The fleece boat fender covers are built to last, providing a soft contact surface that reduces scuffing and helps preserve your boat’s finish. This boat fender covers fleece model offers more than comfort; it delivers practical benefits that traditional vinyl or rubber bumpers can’t match. The fleece exterior creates a forgiving barrier that cushions the hull, helping to eliminate minor abrasions during docking. It’s an excellent choice for boaters who want a quieter, smoother docking experience without compromising on protection.
The complete assembly includes a polymer mounting track and all necessary stainless steel hardware for secure installation. The track is engineered to stay anchored on wood, composite, or other dock materials, allowing the fender to maintain its position through repeated use and changing marine conditions. Once mounted, this system stays fixed, no shifting, sagging, or crew repositioning required. In addition to its performance, the Fleece Fender is available in custom colors to help you achieve the exact look you want on your dock. If you’re interested in a specific aesthetic or branding match, we invite you to contact us to request a custom color. This feature is ideal for homeowners, marinas, and yacht clubs seeking a consistent and professional appearance. Any fleece-covered Slammer fender product comes with a 1-year warranty covering defects and material performance. Unlike our 2- and 4-year warranties for commercial and residential PVC products, fleece naturally fades and wears faster due to UV and abrasion. The PVC backing, however, continues to provide reliable protection well beyond the warranty. Many customers report 2–3 years of use before replacement.If you’re looking for fleece boat fender covers that combine durable engineering with soft-surface contact, the Slammer Marine Fleece Fender is a smart, reliable choice. It offers a premium feel, consistent performance, and the peace of mind that comes from using industry-proven materials built for life on the water.

As we enter our sixth season with Slammer Integrated Dock Fenders at Brown & Howard Marina, their performance has been nothing short of exceptional. These fenders have proven to be incredibly durable, standing up to the demands of a busy marina while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. Beyond superior dock and hull protection, they offer an added layer of safety for both our customers and staff—an invaluable benefit in a high-traffic environment. Their longevity and reliability make them a smart, long-term investment. Equally impressive is the support from the Slammer team—responsive, knowledgeable, and always ready to assist. Choosing Slammer was one of the best decisions we’ve made for the marina, and season after season, they continue to deliver unmatched value.

We’ve had Slammer Fenders on our fuel dock for many years now and have found that they are an invaluable part of our facility. They provide high quality, reliable protection to our customers boats as well as our docks. Their durability has stood up to the countless boats who visit our fuel dock as well as the New England weather. I highly recommend Slammer Fenders to all commercial or private operations looking to make docking easier.

We’ve been using Slammer fenders on our heavily used floats for a few years now. Between our regular service and transient customers, we have received many compliments on their appearance and convenience. The primary benefit is that the boats are closer to the dock when tied up, which allows for safer boarding. The Slammers have proved to provide added safety to our customers, their boats, and our staff.

Quick note to let you know how happy we have been with our Slammer Marine products. Oyster Harbors Marine has not only used them at our marina in Osterville, Massachusetts, but also highly recommend them to our customers for their private docks in the area. We have ordered from you both the fleece-covered product and the PVC product and have used them both on floating docks and fixed pilings. They are easy to install. They are easy to remove in the winter when all the ice shows up. We will be ordering more this spring and continue to promote your product whenever people ask. Thanks for such a great product. We’ll talk soon.

Sail Newport has invested in three different sized fendering options from Slammer Marine over the last five years. We chose the fendering because of the installation process being far more durable than their competitors as well as the size range options of the fenders. We have several hundred, if not thousands of sailboat renters and students making landings on our docks throughout the year. Suffice to say our boats take a beating! However, we can quantify the savings in repairing the small nicks and dings or the odd major fiberglass jobs caused by inadvertent “hard” landings on our floating docks! Renters and students don’t always make perfect landings! Slammer Marine fendering has literally saved us thousands of dollars a year in fiberglass repair.

Absolutely—Slammer fenders are built specifically for harsh marine environments. The closed-cell foam core repels water absorption, preventing rot or degradation, while the PVC-coated fabric cover resists UV damage, saltwater staining, and abrasion from constant exposure. They’re low-maintenance: a simple rinse with soapy water removes salt and dirt, with no need for seasonal removal or special cleaners. This ensures reliable, year-round performance without fading, flattening, or shifting in windy, salty conditions.
Installation is designed for simple DIY with basic tools like a power drill, level, and hand saw for custom cuts—no special skills required. The system includes pre-drilled polymer mounting tracks (½” x 3⅝” x 40″ sections) that affix to your dock face in minutes using included stainless steel screws. Fender sections slide effortlessly into the track for a secure, hidden fit. It’s compatible with wood, aluminum, concrete, fixed, or floating docks, and can be mounted vertically or horizontally to match your setup and boat’s contact points.
We offer an industry-leading “fender-to-fender” no-hassle warranty: 4 years for private docks and slips, and 2 years for commercial applications like launch or fuel docks. If any issue arises—bursting, breaking, or otherwise—we’ll repair or replace it at no cost. Just email us with photos of the problem; we’ll handle the rest. This reflects our confidence in Slammer’s unbreakable build, engineered to be the most durable recreational boat and dock fender available.
Slammer fenders feature a premium closed-cell foam inner core that’s highly impact-resistant and absorbs minimal water, ensuring it maintains its shape even under repeated pounding from waves and boat impacts. The outer cover is made from 30oz PVC-coated, marine-grade fabric—the same UV- and abrasion-resistant material used in top-tier marine inflatables—protecting against saltwater corrosion, fading, and cracking. This construction makes them impervious to extreme weather, saltwater exposure, and daily marine punishment, far outlasting traditional inflatable fenders that degrade in 1-2 seasons.
