New 'Sea Bumpers'

Available From Seaward

To complement their growing line of foam-filled marine buoys and fenders, Seaward Interna- tional, Inc., Clearbrook, Va., now offers a more compact yet very rugged style of fender known as the Sea Bumper. As with other fender designs Seaward is well known for, the Sea Bumper has an

February, 1992 inner core composed of a closed- cell polyethylene foam surrounded by a thick polymer skin of rugged polyurethane elastomer. This skin is formulated and manufactured by

Seaward specifically for this fender style and application. The Sea

Bumper is available in various cross sections and individual unit lengths from 4 to 16 feet for custom selec- tion. Multiple units can be installed end-to-end to provide a continuous fender system.

Ideally suited for applications where a pier or wharf needs fendering configured to its long, nar- row style, the Sea Bumper provides high capacity, flexibility and dura- bility to meet a variety of installa- tion requirements including small standoff and limited space. It is rugged enough to be placed between larger fenders at major port facili- ties yet practical enough to be the primary fendering system at smaller ports and marinas.

One specific requirement these fenders have filled recently is pro- viding protection for the stern ac- commodation platforms of CVN class aircraft carriers. Present installa- tions include Sea Bumpers in sets of nine, each having a 6- by 8-inch cross section and 16-foot length, in- stalled on the USS Abraham Lin- coln (CVN 72) and the USS Theodore

Roosevelt (CVN 71).
