Compatibility

Affordable Replacement Solution

Dealing with a broken skeg can be expensive. Megaware SkegGuard® offers a cost-effective alternative, saving you hundreds of dollars on skeg repairs and replacements. It's a practical solution that ensures your boat remains in top condition without breaking the bank.

Superior Protection

The SkegGuard® is constructed from high-quality marine-grade 316 stainless steel, providing exceptional durability and resistance to the harsh marine environment. An extra reinforced wear tab across the bottom enhances protection where the skeg is most vulnerable, guarding against hidden rocks, debris, and accidental ramp dragging.

Advanced Design Features

• Thickened Lower Plate: The 3mm thickened lower plate withstands damage and abrasion, ensuring long-lasting protection.
• Conforms to Lower Unit: The design conforms to your lower unit, preventing any discernible drag or compromise in motor performance.
• Drain Hole: A strategically placed drain hole prevents water from collecting and remaining stagnant, reducing the risk of corrosion and freezing.

Easy Installation

Installing the Megaware SkegGuard® is a breeze. Secured with self-locking hardware, it can be installed using common tools in under 10 minutes. Whether you're performing routine maintenance or repairing a broken skeg, SkegGuard® simplifies the process:

1. Remove the existing skeg.
2. Align the SkegGuard® with the lower unit.
3. Secure it using the included self-locking hardware.
4. Ensure a tight fit and check for proper alignment.

If replacing an already broken skeg, SkegGuard® can be installed with as little as 2 inches of skeg remaining, offering a stronger and more affordable alternative to welding and replacing the entire lower skeg.
