Which Boat Dock Bumper is Right for Your Boat?

Have you recently purchased a new boat?

Have you had a boat for years, but you’re tired of seeing it take a beating each time you dock?

Are you looking to improve the overall look and feel of your boat dock?

Boat dock bumpers are a great addition to any aluminum boat dock.  Our popular torpedo post bumpers as well as the Alumi-Span exclusive dock post bumper extensions are a great way to protect your investment.  Dock post bumpers cover the connection between your cross arm and the upright pole.  Best of all you can use these items on any post style dock system.  There are several advantages to using post bumpers.

Torpedo post bumpers come in a variety of colors and sizes to suit your needs.

Protection:

Even if you have a boat lift, it’s common to pull the boat up directly to the dock.  Loading passengers, launching wake board equipment, or transporting heavy coolers is much easier with the boat right next to the dock.  Dock post bumpers give you something to bring the boat up against.  They will protect your jell coat and also protect the dock.  If your boat has a high rub rail like a pontoon boat torpedo post bumper extensions can also be a great product to use.  With the correct bumper system you can pull your boat into the dock without worry.

Beautification:

A carefully chosen bumper system will add protection to the dock and will also beautify it! You can color coordinate post bumpers and extension bumpers to match your side stringer bumpers.  This not only gives you full coverage of the dock but also looks great.  Side stringer bumpers also work great at protecting small boats that may get bushed under the dock.  Many customers even match the color of the post and side stringer bumpers to their boat covers as well.

Universal:

Alumi-Span dock post bumpers are universal for all post style dock systems.  You don’t need to have an Alumi-Span Dock to utilize many of our dock bumper options.  Post bumpers are commonly used on aluminum, vinyl, and even wood dock systems.
