I have a couple boat bumpers that I have to use at the docks. One is going pretty flat and they aren't cheap.

I see a point where you could possibly (??) inflate them using a long, narrow tip I guess, like inflating a football. Anyone ever do this and did that hold up for any length of time?

They're expensive so I'm hoping.

Thank you.

Use a needle valve and a hand air pump. I have to inflate mine every couple of years. And it works. Don't use a auto air pump at your local 7-11 or you will be in the market for 2 new bumpers. They just can't handle that kind of pressure.

Thanks much, I'll do that.

Some of the cheap bike tire pumps even come with the needle as an included accessory.
