It looks like backing into the slip I am going to have this season will make the most sense. Does anyone have a recommendation on a stern fender for an R5? I would like to escape this season without a hefty repair bill.

If backing and stern tie you’ll need 1 or 2 of these. And with your low platform these make sence.
We stern in a lot for space savings at the places we go. So we use these.

Perfect. Thank you. Trying to figure out where to attach them. The rear cleats on the gunwales are on the side and there isn't anything on the back of the sun pad to hook onto. Hmmm...

I am thinking this might work on the swim step tied up to the cleats.

Yes that the first example I showed you. If you click the Amazon pic that’s actually a fancy link.
