Anyone have one of these or know someone who does? I'm thinking about getting one. Any thoughts? I tried to add a picture but it's not woking for me. I don't know how to add a link. I'm thinking about the 9'X26" model. It's sold on iboats. Thank you.

I have a buddy that swears by them and the ones he has have lasted him a couple years so far if it helps bud!

It helps a lot:). I'll be getting a pair of them. It seems like a great concept. I figure they'll make great cushions when not being used for their main purpose. I was just a little concerned about the protection, being that the foam pads are only 2 1/2" thick. I'm sure they're very high density, though. Thanks for the response Buddy. That was pretty quick:D.

My wife is from an OLD WORLD Southern family. My Mother-in-Law had never dated anyone when she met my Father-in-Law. She was 21. All dating took place on the front porch of her house, with her father watching through a window or her mother out there with them. They don't use foul language. I was an active duty United States Army Ranger from Brooklyn, New York, when I was dating their daughter. Every now and then, something would slip... Try to imagine the looks on their faces:eek:.

Re: Hull Hugr

I've used them for three years. They cost less, take up less space when stowed, are useful cushions for kids, handle any type of dock, and mine have no significant wear. Unless you are tying up to another boat they are great.
The white ones pick up black skuffs from the rubber matting on a floating store I pull up to sometimes. The black ones don't seem to mark anything on dock bumpers.
Mine are the two part small size ones and they fit much better than any other type on my fairly low profile boat.
The big ones like you've linked should stop any damage, even with a lot of wave motion at a dock.

I recommend them regularly.
