My girlfriends dad is nice enough to let me put our boat in their secondary slip. The entrance of it is 90 inches wide but the rest of it is plenty wide. The middle of my glastron 17 ft bow rider I/o is 86" at the middle widest point. I'm trying to figure out what I can wrap the corners of the concrete with without taking more width than necessary away!

I can't use the spin wheel type deal because the wall goes up past my gunwale .

I cannot find any rubber anywhere and tips on other things I can use?

I know but it's either that or trailering it which will stink on weekends. I'm not worried about scuffing up the run strip but just want some kind of protection from concrete.
Never thought about rug thank you so much!!! Going to use that :)

Find a soft one but even another will only leave minor scratches that can be buffed out. Get several as it will not last an entire season, especially in saltwater and/or much use.

Seems like an easy solution... Just don't hit the concrete! LOL.... couldn't resist. Yeah, that's a tight one. Carpet should provide a descent cushion.
