Old tires (tyres) work as boat fenders, too. ;-)

When I was growing up we called that thing a "cow catcher".

So did we in NZ.

The use of 'fender' for a cow-catcher as something I found in a

mat thing used between two ships of ship and wharf and for horizontal
chunks of wood mounted on piers and wharfs.

Yep, been there, done that.

Using aircraft tyres is a new one for me, though.
