Step on a fender

FenderStep is another of those ideas that brings the Homer Simpson-like slap to the forehead with the accompanying "Doh!" exclamation, followed by the usual "why didn't I think of that?"

A so-simple idea that makes stepping on and off yachts and powerboats very easy. As many new boats are being build with increased topside height, say the manufacturers, so stepping from the pontoon or dinghy now is often a difficult exercise - even for an agile crew.

The FenderStep is made in Denmark by dan-hill-plast a/s, which is well known for its extensive range of fenders for all marine applications, from fishing boats to the world's navies.

They say the product is attractively priced, compact, light weight and can be simply dropped in a locker after use.
