I have the Keelgard on my boat, basically can pull up on anything. I do avoid big or chunk rock because that can still hurt the hull. They work great for pea-gravel banks and all boat ramps.

Good beachin.....Okie Poke

Get a KeelShield. You'll be glad you did! I've had the others....even had problems with the others and I didn't even install any of those. KeelShield is the one you need. www.keelshield.com

Bass Regards,

Mstewart, you can order all 14 colors online through BPS for a colored KeelShield. It's pretty difficult to get that much sku space at the actual store, hence the basic colors that go with most everything are stocked.

Daily, we are putting our product on many aluminums crafts. For yours, in specific, just log on to the website and ask about your model. Your question will be answered in a timely courteous fashion. Thanks all!

I have the Keel Guard on my boat, after about a year it started to release in places. The adhesive is not releasing from the boat, but the vinyl is releasing from the adhesive pad. They were very nice in making suggestions about how to repair, and offered a replacement if I wanted to remove the old one and put on new. So far I have elected to just fixed the places that have released, but this appears to be an ongoing problem.

I have the Keelshield and it has saved my keel from having chunks removed at Lake Texoma. Plus, it has a life time warranty so if you rip a chunk out and can't repair it with 3M 5200, they'll send you a new one.

I called Hamby's about theirs and their VP of sales couldn't tell me if it fit Sea Pro SV2100CCs or not.

Dave, let me know what you find out.

The Hamby VP didn't know and he said "just tow your boat to one of our dealers and they can look at it". The SV2100CC keel is sharper than normal so that is why I was concerned.

Since I keep my boat at Texoma, I wasn't going to haul it around the metroplex for a Hamby's dealer to look at my boat. smile

So, I called Keelshield. Their VP sent me a pic file of a SV2100CC with a Keelshield installed and said, "Yes, our product will fit your boat."

So, Keelshield got my business.

I know the Hamby's product is great but their VP needs to do some homework instead of just telling potential customers "I don't know haul your boat to a dealer." smile smile

Yea Bob I do like it. Keelshield works good and looks cool too! Black KeelShield matches the black gel band on the boat! Nice.
