    I have those fenders and they’re just okay. The cleats on Skeeters are in the wrong place. Widest spot on the boat is the helm/console area. I installed a cleat next to the drivers seat at the helm and life is good. A rope tied off snug will keep your boat from banging off the dock.

    Had that setup for the past 4 years. I drop my Talon down and use that to keep it from floating away and swinging into the dock. Works great if you tie up on an angle as stated above the cleats are kinda in a odd spot and will still hit the run tail around the helm.

    Here’s the real answer. A cleat next to the drivers seat. Problem solved.
