Product Details

SkegGuard™ Skeg Protector by Megaware®. The Megaware SkegGuard is constructed of high quality marine grade material that incorporates an extra reinforced wear tab across the bottom where the skeg is most vulnerable. This lower plate will withstand damage or abrasion from hidden rocks and debris or accidental ramp dragging. The Megaware SkegGuard conforms to your lower unit to insure there is no discernible drag or compromise in performance. A drain hole keeps water from collecting and remaining stagnant.

Great Product and Reasonably Priced
Megaware® 27211 - SkegGuard™ Skeg Protector
It fits my 2020 Mercury 150 HP outboard perfectly. It was easy to install and fits snuggly over the skeg. I use my boat primarily in a black water river with depths typically under 5 feet. There are some shallow spots that can have some hidden hazards. I had some skeg damage on my previous boat, and am determined not to do the same with this one. I haven't hit anything yet, but expect the SkegGuard to prevent any damage, if I do.

I am an active boater who is fortunate to fish and utilize my boat about 320 days a year. The bay I run my boat is extremely shallow and has many areas containing clams, shells and shallow bottom. I have used the SkegGuard for about a decade now and would not be without one. It protects my engine and gives me confidence while running the flats. I am not careless but that extra bit of protection is very reassuring. I recommend this product without hesitation or reservation. Get it and you will not be sorry! JNM

Just waying in on the SkegGuard skeg protector that I installed on my I/O 140 Mercruser with Alpha 1 outdrive. This attachment went on and attached perfectly and looks great. And it works perfectly. I already was out fishing in some shallow water and sure enough while only idling through those shallows something was protruding up even more shallow than the depth finder found and the skeg protector did it's job. Quickly shutting down the engine saved any damage from occurring but I feel that part of this outcome was having the SkegGuard installed as it adds a little more depth and that gives a little more protection and Zero prop damage. Very happy that I have added this to my boat.

Protector Solid, Skeg Broke Off Clean
Megaware® 27031 - SkegGuard™ Skeg Protector
Although the skeg never got all scratched up, it did break off clean. At least I can use the protector again.

Works like a champ and looks fantastic compared to my broken skeg!! We always keep a spare SkeGguard in our parts box just incase we bend it. Thanks again!!

Megaware® 27051 - SkegGuard™ Skeg Protector
Installed this on my Bravo 3. My skeg was slightly damaged and this just puts all the meat back and protects. Great product with easy install.
