Our Hurricane Series Fenders continue to gain in popularity around the world with a steady increase in sales to the USA and Australia over the past six months. Our reputation for top quality products is spreading fast, in particular throughout professional sailing teams. The photo to the left is of a recent order for an Australian customer.
We are pleased to announce the recent delivery of 14 custom sized Hurricane series fenders to Sail GP for their F50 Foiling Catamarans. The size, shape and need for protection of these incredible yachts made our fenders a perfect fit.
Hauraki Fenders is again revolutionizing the marine fender market with the introduction of its Rectangular Inflatable Fenders. These fenders combine the storage benefits of inflatable fenders with the advantages of rectangular shaped fenders.
