WHY BUY PROP GUARD

INTRODUCING THE PROP GUARD: ENHANCED SAFETY FOR OUTBOARD & STERN DRIVE BOATS

The Prop Guard is a revolutionary, U.S. and internationally patented propeller guard designed for maximum safety and durability. Unlike other solutions, it features no moving parts, no electrical wiring, and no hydraulic hoses. Crafted from high-impact, state-of-the-art polypropylene, the Prop Guard is built to last while ensuring optimal protection.

WHAT IS A PROP GUARD?

The Prop Guard is an innovative safety device engineered to enclose the propeller like a nozzle. This two-piece, injection-molded plastic guard fully encases the propeller and is securely attached using a specially designed clamp system and bolts. The two halves lock together like a clamshell, fastening to both the cavitation plate and skeg of any outboard or stern drive motor. Best of all, installation is quick and easy, requiring only basic tools and about 30 minutes to complete.

DO PROP GUARDS HELP REDUCE INJURIES? 

Propeller accidents can be catastrophic, and there are no “minor” incidents when it comes to propeller-related injuries. Installing the Prop Guard significantly reduces the risk of severe injuries to both humans and marine life. In fact, Federal and State lobbying groups anticipate mandatory propeller guard regulations in the near future—making safety solutions like the Prop Guard more important than ever.

HOW IS THE PROP GUARD DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PROPELLER GUARDS?

Unlike traditional metal guards, which can be heavy, prone to corrosion, and potentially damaging to the propeller, the Prop Guard is made from lightweight, high-impact, flexible injection-molded plastic. This advanced material prevents the guard from bending into the propeller upon impact, a common issue with metal alternatives. Additionally, metal guards can break apart, creating dangerous fragments that pose risks to both personal safety and gearbox integrity. 

CONCLUSION 

Boating safety is a global concern, and every precaution counts. With the Prop Guard, boaters can significantly reduce the risk of injury or fatal accidents while protecting marine life. Whether for recreational use or commercial applications, Prop Guard provides a simple, effective, and reliable safety solution for any outboard or stern drive motor.
