Why Choose Megaware SkegGuard®?

Protecting your boat’s skeg is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and avoiding costly repairs. The Megaware SkegGuard® offers a reliable and affordable alternative to traditional skeg repair and replacement methods. Whether you're safeguarding against potential damage or addressing an existing issue, the SkegGuard® delivers unmatched protection and longevity.

Features and Benefits

  • Premium Construction: Built from marine-grade 316 stainless steel, the SkegGuard® ensures resistance against corrosion and harsh marine environments.
  • Reinforced Durability: Equipped with a 3mm thickened lower wear tab, it provides extra protection where the skeg is most vulnerable to rocks, debris, and ramp dragging.
  • Seamless Performance: Designed to conform perfectly to your lower unit, the SkegGuard® maintains smooth operation without any noticeable drag.
  • Drainage System: A strategically placed drain hole prevents water accumulation, reducing the risk of corrosion and freezing.
  • Easy Installation: Secured with self-locking hardware, the SkegGuard® can be installed in under 10 minutes using common tools.
  • Versatile Replacement: Ideal for replacing a broken skeg, it requires only 2-3 inches of existing skeg, offering a stronger and more cost-effective solution than welding.

Installation Guide

Installing the Megaware SkegGuard® is straightforward and can be completed in less than 10 minutes with basic tools. Follow these steps for a hassle-free installation:

  1. Remove the existing skeg if necessary, leaving at least 2-3 inches intact.
  2. Align the SkegGuard® with your lower unit, ensuring the drain hole is positioned correctly.
  3. Screw the self-locking hardware into place, securing the SkegGuard® firmly.
  4. Double-check all connections to ensure there is no drag or interference with the motor's performance.

No specialized tools or welding skills are required, making it an ideal DIY project for boat owners.
