The Megaware KeelGuard 20706 is a 6-foot, charcoal-colored keel protector designed to shield your boat's hull from the abrasive damage caused by sand, rocks, concrete ramps, and oyster beds. Wear to the keel breaks down the protective gelcoat finish, allowing water to penetrate and destroy the underlying fiberglass laminates — the KeelGuard stops that damage before it starts.
Patented Engineering with 3M Technology
Every element of the KeelGuard is the result of collaboration between boat designers and 3M engineers. A precision-blended, abrasion-resistant combination of polymers and urethanes delivers optimal durability and flexibility. A 3M acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive creates a powerful, permanent bond, while the self-sealing contoured edges conform tightly to the hull surface — no messy sealants required. Angled grooves produce hydrodynamic channels that create air pockets and reduce drag, so your boat's performance is maintained.
