How to Tie & Adjust Fenders on Your Boat | Bali 45 Catamaran

On this episode of Royal Navy Yachtmaster, Captain David demonstrates how to properly tie on and adjust fenders on your boat. Fenders are important because they push the hull of your boat away from any object that might scratch it and you want ensure you have them secured prior to docking. Clove hitch and round turn and two half hitches are the best knots to use for tying on fenders because they keep the fenders secure. Aside from protecting your boat, fenders make a huge impact on your boats' overall appearance. They also act as an indication to other boaters that you know what you are doing. When the fenders are not properly secured, hanging at different lengths, dragging in the water, brown and disgusting, this is not a good look. Thanks for watching this video.
