<p>The invention comprises apparatus for stabilising a floating craft against a stationary structure, said apparatus comprising means of attaching the apparatus to a floating craft, an elongate fender, said fender comprising a structure contacting face, with said apparatus further comprising at least two jaws, each of said jaws comprising a front face and a structure contacting surface, wherein at least one jaw is movable from a first position to a second position and vice versa, in order that said jaws may be positioned in a first open position where the structure contacting surfaces of the jaws are relatively far apart and a second closed position wherein the structure contacting surfaces of the jaws are relatively close together, wherein when said apparatus is positioned such that when a suitably sized part of the stationary structure is placed between the jaws, the said jaws may be brought into the closed position, thereby creating craft stabilising contact between the structure contacting surfaces of the jaws and the structure.</p> |
