The Tender Whip Kit
All mooring whip systems come complete with solid fiberglass poles, roller tips, whip cleats and whip line. The roller tips and whip cleats are made of non marking nylon. The coupler is made of fiberglass. Two stainless flush bases with mounting hardware and installation instructions complete the kit.
The stainless flush mounts can be installed on swim platforms, deck, or rub rails, depending on the preferred location of the tender.
The poles come in two pieces which can be easily stored. The flush bases eliminate tripping or catching of lines on board.
