  • Patent number: 6161494
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a bumper device for boats, which is extremely simple to use. The device comprises inflatable bodies, which are associated with the peripheral walls of the boat, and means for inflation-deflation of the inflatable bodies. The means for inflation-deflation can be activated by command, for transition of the inflatable bodies from a condition of rest, in which they are deflated, to a condition of work, in which they are inflated, and project from the peripheral walls of the boat, in order to protect the peripheral walls during mooring manoeuvres.
