Will MAVEN work on my Barletta pontoon boat? MAVEN is compatible with Barletta brand pontoon boats. While MAVEN is designed to work with a wide range of pontoon boat configurations—including those with standard top rails and rub rail gaps—Barletta models require the use of the included replacement hook for optimal fit and performance.
To ensure proper installation, a replacement hook is included with every MAVEN product specifically to accommodate these design variations. If you have any questions about installation or compatibility, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re happy to help.
Is MAVEN designed to be attached while the boat is in motion? No. MAVEN Pontoon Fenders (like other fenders) are not designed to be attached while the boat is in motion. Many pontoon owners are accustomed to keeping their fenders permanently attached, letting them dangle over the edge, and flopping them in and out of the boat. At MISSION, we’ve never liked this look on our own toons—but it’s understandable because constantly adjusting fenders to the proper height is a struggle.
This is why we created MAVEN—to eliminate the hassle and dramatically speed up fender deployment. We engineered MAVEN for lightning-quick deployment. Applying and reapplying the fender takes just a few seconds. With this newfound efficiency, it’s now easy to remove the fenders and store them in a compartment while the boat is in motion.
Where does MAVEN stow? When not in use, MAVEN fits easily in most seat compartments.
