  • Boat bumper
    Patent number: 5727493
    Abstract: A boat bumper includes an elongated pipe encased in an injection molded material and having a pair of elongated spaced apart pads affixed to a rearward side of the body. Each pad has a generally V-shaped notch formed therein for receiving the bow edge of a boat. A bracket has a head portion extending around the pipe and is located between the two pads, the bracket having a pair of legs projecting rearwardly outwardly through the casing, to receive the eye on the bow of a boat therebetween. A ring is mounted on the bracket and projects diametric to the legs through the casing and forwardly from the body. The casing is formed of a fluorescent colored injection molded material, and the pads are formed of a resilient compressible material to cushion dynamic impacts thereon.
