Boat fenders protect a ship from damage basically the same way a bumper protects your car. Fleece fender covers let you attach one without worrying about damage to your boat or other boats from your fenders themselves, making them more durable to last through more seasons.

As you might expect, a boat fender cover is a niche product. It isn't something you'll find listed among the pens, trucker hats, and tote bags of your generic imprint catalog. That's why Hinckley Yachts came to Shirtboy.com with a unique problem—what we provided was an exceptional solution.

Founded almost 100 years ago to service local lobster boats and the ships of Maine's summer residents, Hinckley Yachts wanted to present their slipholders and customers at their seven shipyards with a unique promotional item they could use. (Not another can cooler.)

That's why Hinckley Yachts came to Shirtboy.com with a unique problem—what we provided was an exceptional solution.

Here at Shirtboy.com, we figured out how to custom make soft covers for the two most popular sizes of fender. We settled on a polyester fleece that was thick enough to protect a boat from scuffs and still dried quickly to prevent mold or mildew. After creating the fender covers from our pattern, our trusted overseas factory embroidered a logo in elegant gold thread that matched their branding for an extra-special touch. We even took the extra step of personalizing them with the boat name for Hinckley's VIP customers.
