ABSTRACT:
A bumper storage system is useful for selectively stowing the bumpers that are commonly used to protect boats against damage from a dock or the like and for automatically setting the bumpers in their operative protective positions. The bumper storage system comprises a receptacle on the boat that loosely receives a bumper, with one bumper end being readily accessible to a person on board. The second bumper end is tied by a tether to a fitting within the receptacle. The tether is exactly the right length for suspending the bumper in the proper operative position when the bumper is removed from the receptacle and tossed over the deck and alongside the hull. The receptacle may be of different types, including being formed as a cavity molded into the boat hull or deck. Other types of receptacles can be inserted into a boat hull or attached to a cockpit wall.
