    Backing into slip + fenders

    I see how you did your dock fenders...might go that route, i saw someone else that got like 2x 60" ones and liked that idea too. i will definitely be getting a corner piece. love the goldens...my black lab would be a panting mess on our boat.

    Fisherman 222 Transom modifications

    The motor well can be a PIA. At the dock I am at, we have a dock box we put a lot of "crap" in and are able to utliize the center console space more for coolers, bags and stuff, ect. Thought....do you have the livewell on your leaning post? that turns into a great cooler for drinks, samiches...

    Backing into slip + fenders

    Good observation. I have about 2.5feet from the dock to skeg/prop. Use a nice spring line to make sure the hull doesn't move closer. I dont pull in as the slips on the side of the dock I am at are relatively unprotected, lots of chop, waves and wind. Also, my transom is wide open - bow out...

    Agreed. Should have mentioned, that I would still have the fenders on board...just hope not to use them all to frequently!

    Backing into slip + fenders

    Appreciate the opinions. @DennisG01 the source of annoyance isn't just cleating and dealing with dock lines...its the fact that I also have twin 3.5year old boys that find ways to make the fenders into weapons, lol! @SkunkBoat appreciate the photo, i'm a visual kind of learner. Is it worth it...

    Backing into slip + fenders

    22' Fisherman...backing into slip no issue. The fenders are annoying...either getting them out of the console and cleating before we back-in or keeping them on the cleats. I am contemplating "hull-saver" dock cushions in response to my annoyance with fenders. I guess I could always cleat the...

    Wtb Front console seat cushion and bow cushions for 2004 fisherman 222

    It is very hard to find cushions. Best bet is to have an upholstery shop make some. depending on where you are located...a shop might have a template for what you are looking for...or can make one if you bring them boat to them. Where are you located? I had a bow cushion made for my 222 - $1200
