what is a bow saver

The B & R Bow Saver is a unique new product that allows you to easily moor and protect your boat for long or short periods of time. Made from plastic, with a soft edge trim, it allows you to tie or attach stainless steel clips to the bow eye, considered to be the strongest fastener on the boat. Be secure with the knowledge that your boat’s bow area gelcoat and fiberglass are being protected. Our 10” Bow Saver is designed specifically for boats moored in a single slip. This unique design allows you to tie or clip the boat in either a 4 point or 5 point system. (See fig.1) Our 7” Bow Saver is designed specifically for boats moored in a double slip. This unique design allows you to tie or clip the boat in a 2 point system. Depending on the type of boat you have, you may also be able to use another 7” on the back mooring eye. This will protect both tie points from damage.

Our B & R 10” Bow Saver was designed specifically for use on boats that are moored in single slips using either a 4 point or 5 point mooring system. The bow saver should be placed on the boat’s bow eye, decal side up, and the mooring clips or ropes should be attached. We do not recommend this unit for use on boats using a double slip, 2 point mooring system. Your boat’s bow eye is considered the strongest point for mooring on the boat. Using the bow saver at this point provides your boat the best protection possible during inclement weather and in rough waters. Mooring lines may have a tendency to stretch over time and in rough water. When you allow for some slack in the lines, the bow saver will help keep the clips or ropes away from the gelcoat and fiberglass. Boat manufacturers recommend checking your mooring lines often during the boating season, and adjusting any slack as may be required. The 10” Bow Saver may also be used for boats attached to mooring buoys.

Our B & R 7” Bow Saver was designed specifically for use on boats that are using a double slip, 2 point mooring system. The bow saver should be placed on the boat’s bow eye, decal side up, and the mooring clips or ropes should be attached. We do not recommend this unit for use on boats using a single slip, 4 point, or 5 point mooring system. Your boat’s bow eye is considered to be the strongest point for mooring on the boat.

Boat manufacturers recommend checking your mooring lines often during the boating season and adjusting any slack as may be required. In some cases owners may choose to use the 7” Bow Saver for boats attached to mooring buoys. Some boats will have a mooring eye located on the back for lines, the 7” bow saver will in some instances work on the aft ties, thus providing additional protection for your boat.

Each year boaters spend hundreds and thousands of dollars repairing damage caused by docks, slips, and ties. The B & R Bow Saver can reduce a segment of that damage. This simple yet ingenious product helps to protect the bow area while your boat is moored in a single slip, a double slip, or on a mooring buoy. Functional and easy to use, the bow saver can preserve the value of your boat when used correctly. Your boat will always have that added protection when moored at the dock while you’re away. Our Bow Saver has gone through three years of on-water testing, and has proven to be an inexpensive and practical safeguard when mooring your boat. (See Fig.2) Boats today are very expensive, and we all want them to look good. Blemishes and marks can damage a boat, resulting in costly structural and cosmetic damage. Protecting your boat will pay off in the long run, especially when it’s time to sell or trade your boat. Making the B & R Bow Saver an essential component of your daily boating, will add to your overall protection.
