Sav-A-Dock · Born on Lake Martin, Alabama

Protect your boat. Protect your dock.

Boat dock bumpers that stay where you need them.

The system

What is Sav-A-Dock?

Sav-A-Dock is a universal dock and watercraft protection system: a bumper and marine fender system that acts as a continuous cushion between a boat (or personal watercraft) and a dock or piling.

The Sav-A-Dock name was born on Lake Martin in Alabama, by a team of inventors with a background in aerospace. It is the only boat dock bumper guard system to be awarded a full utility patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

How it works

Sav-A-Dock works on fixed docks, floating docks, piers, marinas, boat slips, pilings and finger walkways: basically any structure used to tie up a boat.

  1. 1

    Measure your dock

    Measure each edge and corner where boats make contact.

  2. 2

    Pick the profile

    Choose flat, inside-corner or outside-corner ends to match each spot.

  3. 3

    Choose the length

    Bumpers come in 2-inch steps from 12 to 46 inches, with free UPS Ground shipping.

  4. 4

    Mount it once

    Bumper guards mount directly to the dock in the ideal position, and stay there.

Sized for real boats

Why 6 inches?

The U.S. Coast Guard recommends about 1 inch of fender diameter for every 4–5 feet of boat length, which makes a 6-inch bumper ideal for watercraft up to 30 feet. Rounded hulls like pontoons and V-hulls especially need the extra diameter, and it clears dock brackets that stick out beyond 4 inches.

Built for every dock

Who uses Sav-A-Dock?

Adding dock bumpers prevents thousands of dollars in damage, wherever boats tie up.

Marinas and boatyards

Less damage, and slip renters gladly pay extra to have padding added.

Fuel docks

Padding helps keep fuel hoses from being pinched between the dock and the boat.

Restaurants, bars and parks

Protect your dock and the boaters who visit, from waterfront restaurants to public launches and campgrounds.

Private dock owners

Protect your own boat every time you pull in.
