Megaware KeelGuard 20207 7ft Black DIY Boat Keel Protector

The Megaware KeelGuard 20207 is the original patented, do-it-yourself keel protector designed to defend your boat's hull from the everyday hazards of launching and beaching. Abrasion from sand, rocks, concrete ramps, and oyster beds can wear through your boat's gelcoat finish, allowing water to penetrate and damage the underlying fiberglass laminates — the KeelGuard stops that damage before it starts.

Advanced Engineering & Construction:

• Developed in partnership with boat designers and 3M engineers for maximum quality and performance
• Constructed from a tough, abrasion-resistant blend of polymers and urethanes for optimal durability and pliability
• Bonded with a 3M acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive that permanently seals the contoured edges to the hull surface
• Engineered with angled hydrodynamic drag-reduction channels that create air pockets for a slicker, lower-drag surface underway
• Contoured edge design forms a tight, long-lasting seal without messy sealants

Specifications:

• Length: 7 feet
• Width: 5 inches
• Color: Black (UV-stabilized for lasting color)
• Recommended for boats up to 20 feet
• Made in the USA

What's Included:

• KeelGuard strip with pre-applied 3M adhesive
• 3M primer
• Scotch-Brite etching pad
• Burnishing tool
• Detailed installation instructions

Installation: No special tools required. Etch the keel surface with the included Scotch-Brite pad, clean with isopropyl alcohol, apply the 3M primer, then use the burnishing tool to firmly bond the KeelGuard to the hull.

Important Notes: Not recommended for boats whose full weight rests on center keel rollers or a support beam along the keel while trailering. Not suitable for aluminum boats with reinforced rib design, pontoons, catamarans, personal watercraft, or boats with a non-standard V-shaped keel.

Backed by a lifetime warranty against abrasive wear and adhesion failure for the original purchaser, the Megaware KeelGuard is a proven investment in your boat's long-term value and structural integrity.
