Flat Boat Fender LF 2100 – Continuous Hull Protection Over 2.10 Metres

Continuous Hull Protection Over 2.10 Metres

The seaEQ Flat Boat Fender LF 2100 provides continuous protection along extended contact areas of a boat's hull. Measuring 2.10 metres in length, this flat, padded boat fender protects one uninterrupted section of the hull, offering an alternative to several conventional cylindrical or spherical boat fenders positioned side by side.

Particularly on larger boats and yachts, or where contact points change along the hull, the LF 2100 provides reliable protection over an extended area.

Even Load Distribution Instead of Individual Contact Points

Conventional boat fenders protect relatively small, individual areas of the hull. The LF 2100 flat boat fender creates a long, continuous protective zone instead.

This distributes contact forces over a larger surface and reduces concentrated loads on the hull. It is particularly beneficial when wind, waves or passing boat traffic cause movement at the berth.

For Alongside Berthing and Mooring

The LF 2100 is positioned along the outside of the boat's hull. It is especially suitable for situations requiring fender protection over an extended length of the hull.

It can be used when coming alongside a pontoon, during extended stays in a marina or when rafting alongside another boat. Its large protective surface also accommodates changing contact points along the hull.

Two Functions: Flat Boat Fender and Compact Cushion Fender

The LF 2100 can be used at its full length of 2.10 metres or folded into a compact cushion-style boat fender measuring approximately 700 × 400 × 90 mm.

One fender therefore offers two different applications: a long, continuous protective zone along the hull or a compact cushion fender for a smaller contact area.

Flexible Attachment to the Boat

The LF 2100 can be secured according to the boat, its guardrails and the intended application. Depending on the situation, attachment options include ties, straps, ropes or hook-and-loop straps.

seaEQ also offers the FR fender line and the FRC-FR fender line with a guardrail clip. These solutions allow skippers to select the most suitable attachment method and position the flat boat fender according to their requirements.

Robust, Hull-Friendly Construction Without Metal Components

No metal components are used in the seaEQ LF 2100. This eliminates hard metallic parts that could damage the hull through movement or contact.

The seaEQ FRC-FR guardrail clip is also entirely metal-free.

The outer surface of the LF 2100 is made from high-strength PVC-coated polyester fabric. The material has a tested lightfastness rating of grade ≥ 5 according to DIN EN ISO 105-B02.

Its construction combines a large, continuous protective surface with high dimensional stability and a comparatively slim profile. The LF 2100 is designed for regular use in marine environments.

Integrated Protector Mats

The LF 2100 features integrated Protector Mats. These form part of its construction and support the protective performance of the flat boat fender in the contact area against the hull.

LF 2100 Flat Boat Fender and FPM Fender Protection Mats – Two Different Solutions

The LF 2100 is a self-contained, padded flat boat fender that protects the hull along its entire length.

The seaEQ Fender Protection Mats FPM and FPM XL serve a different purpose. They provide an additional protective layer between an existing boat fender and the hull, helping to reduce chafing marks and dirt caused by conventional fenders.

The most suitable solution depends on the berthing situation and the type of hull protection required.

Frequently Asked Questions About the seaEQ Flat Boat Fender LF 2100

What are the advantages of a flat boat fender compared with conventional boat fenders?

A flat boat fender such as the LF 2100 protects a much longer, continuous section of the hull. With a length of 2.10 metres, it can cover several potential contact points. This is particularly useful when contact areas change due to wind, swell or movement of the boat.

Which boats is the LF 2100 suitable for?

The LF 2100 is suitable for boats and yachts requiring protection along an extended section of the hull. The specific berthing and mooring situation is more important than the overall length of the boat.

Can the LF 2100 replace several individual boat fenders?

Depending on the boat and berthing conditions, the LF 2100 can perform the function of several conventional boat fenders positioned side by side. Its continuous length reduces the unprotected gaps that may occur between individual fenders.

Can the LF 2100 also be used as a compact cushion fender?

Yes. The LF 2100 can be folded into a compact cushion fender measuring approximately 700 × 400 × 90 mm. It can therefore be used either as a 2.10-metre-long flat boat fender or as a compact fender, depending on the situation.

How is the LF 2100 attached to the boat?

The attachment method can be selected to suit the individual boat. Options include ties, straps, ropes and hook-and-loop straps.

seaEQ also offers the FR fender line and the FRC-FR fender line with a metal-free guardrail clip.

Is the LF 2100 suitable for rafting alongside another boat?

Yes. When boats are moored alongside each other, the continuous protective surface is particularly useful because the contact points can change as both boats move.

Can the LF 2100 be attached to a pontoon or mooring pile?

The LF 2100 is designed for attachment to the boat. For pontoons, docks and mooring piles, seaEQ offers specially developed solutions such as the DF dock fenders and PF piling fenders.

Does the LF 2100 contain metal components?

No. The seaEQ LF 2100 contains no metal components that could come into contact with and potentially damage the hull. The optional seaEQ FRC-FR guardrail clip is also metal-free.

Is the outer material suitable for outdoor use?

The outer surface is made from high-strength PVC-coated polyester fabric with a tested lightfastness rating of grade ≥ 5 according to DIN EN ISO 105-B02. It is designed for regular use in marine environments.

What is the difference between the LF 2100 and the FPM/FPM XL?

The LF 2100 is a padded flat boat fender with integrated Protector Mats.

The Fender Protection Mats FPM and FPM XL are separate protective mats positioned between an existing boat fender and the boat's hull. The two product groups therefore serve different purposes.

What are the dimensions, colours and weight of the LF 2100?

Fully extended, the LF 2100 measures approximately 2100 × 400 × 30 mm. Folded as a compact cushion fender, it measures approximately 700 × 400 × 90 mm. The weight is approximately 3.7 kg.

It is available in Black, Grey and Blue.
