I agree with round fenders for locks. And if you're not going to need them for a while, you can deflate them and squish them down for storage.

We carry 10x26 cylinders as our primary fenders (stowed in holders on the bow). We also carry 12 and 18 inch ball fenders. The 18s are typically carried deflated unless we're doing locks or going to be docked against high concrete walls, as they don't stow nicely anywhere while inflated.
