The new SkegGuard from Megaware KeelGuard provides the best of two worlds. It will protect and prevent damage to your motor's skeg and can also be used to repair and replace an already broken skeg.

The Megaware SkegGuard is constructed of high quality marine grade 316 stainless steel that incorporates an extra reinforced wear tab across the bottom where the skeg is most vulnerable. This 3mm thickened lower plate will withstand damage or abrasion from hidden rocks and debris or accidental ramp dragging. The SkegGuard conforms to your lower unit to insure there is no discernable drag or compromise in performance. A drain hole keeps water from collecting and remaining stagnant.

Secured with self-locking hardware, the Megaware SkegGuard can be installed with common tools in less than 10 minutes, and will provide years of service and save hundreds of dollars in potential repairs.

If replacing an already broken skeg, the Megaware SkegGuard can be installed on a lower unit with as little as 2 inches of skeg remaining. It will be stronger and much more affordable than welding and replacing a lower skeg.

Skeg Saver
by a Customer from Lakeland, Florida on June 13, 2017
My son broke the tip off the skeg. It was not only broken off but bent. We took a small propane torch heated the main part and got it mostly straight. Had the tip welded back on. I bought the skeg protector for reassurance. It went on easy, looks great.

Megaware SkegGuard is Great!
by Joe from Richmond, Texas on August 22, 2012
Broke my skeg on a submerged structure and installed the Megaware SkegGuard on it. The polish stainless steel makes the outboard motor look better than before. Highly recommended and well worth the money.

Just Installed SkegGuard 27081
by Joe from New Baltimore, Michigan on June 08, 2011
I just wanted to write that I recently purchased a SkegGuard for my outdrive on my Four Winns. It was very easy to install. It took me about an hour vs. 10 minutes but I wanted to make sure that I installed it right and to make sure it wouldn't fall off after use. My outdrive was pretty weathered over the years and was in dire need of a paint job. I mounted the skeg first, marked the holes to be drilled and then drilled the holes. I made sure that I could secure the SkegGuard in place with the screws and then immediately took it off. I painted my outdrive and then reinstalled the SkegGuard after the paint dried. I just wanted to say that I couldn't get over how cool the SkegGuard looks with a newly painted outdrive. I also have a stainless prop, and that also enhances the look of the outdrive (just like the picture). The SkegGuard appears very sturdy and solid after being installed. I took my boat out for a spin and it ran very smooth and stable. I am very happy with this purchase.
