The Solstice Inflatable Rafter is a new, must have boating accessory. No longer will you need the bulky fenders that take up storage space and don't work with all docking and raft up applications. Solstice developed large inflatable fenders to protect your boat from damage when docking, or tying up to other boats. This oversized fender will act a protective barrier for your boat. Equipped with an HR Valve for Rapid Inflation and Deflation. When not in use, simply deflate and stow away to small spaces on-board. *The Rafter is primarily intended for boat to boat applications, but can work as a short term fender for docking.
