The present invention generally relates to a pontoon boat fender that is convenient to use, easy to install and easy to secure in place. The top end of the fender defines a channel that is sized to receive the top of the fence that surrounds the perimeter of the pontoon boat. A stretchable cord is coupled to the lower end of the fender body and to a suction device that is capable of coupling to the float tube of the boat. The fender body extends at least the length of the fence and is shaped so that when it is mounted to the top of the fence the fender does not rest against the remaining portion of the fence, the floor or the rub rail. With this shape, the fender is able to absorb impacts without transferring a significant amount of destructive energy to the pontoon boat components. Moreover, in one embodiment, the fender body includes a number of generally vertical channels that assist in absorbing any impact.
