Keel Protectors

It’s almost inevitable that your boat’s hull will bump into some unseen obstacle at some point. Hitting the bottom, rocks, logs, concrete ramps and the like will eventually cause expensive damage to the keel which is the first to come in contact with underwater hazards. Nicks and scratches on the gelcoat can result in further damage to the fiberglass laminates. Protect your investment and keep your boat’s resale value high by using one of our keel guards.

A keel protector is basically a stripe of abrasion-resistant polymer material with an adhesive layer that sticks directly to the surface of the hull bottom. 3M adhesive creates a strong bond and won’t peel off or loosen if the surface is properly prepped according to the instructions. Keel guards come in different lengths to fit virtually any fiberglass or aluminum boat. A variety of colors are available as well, matching or contrasting the finish of your vessel. You can go ahead and keep the bow from being scuffed with a stainless steel bow shield. All products come from reputable brands that ensure their unparalleled reliability, such as Megaware and Gator Guards.
