A couple of Quick Fist Brand holders make for neat and easy access for a gaff and telescopic boat hook. Installed under the aluminum combing caps mean they are out of the way, but still within reach at a moments notice.

As you can also see, I do not use the traditional inflatable boat fenders, but rather inflatable net buoys. I find the net buoys more durable and I can use them as a temporary mooring buoy, when required.
