Rope Fenders There is a wide variety of fenders and there are many names that can be used to describe them. Pudding is synonymous with fender but implies a softer cushioning action. There are side fenders and bow fenders as well. Bow fenders are often referred to as bow puddings but then it is not always clear if the reference is made to a woven cylinder or the bow whisker or moustache variety. All are illustrated below and hopefully you'll find what you are looking for.
