Really depends what type of roads you drive. I'm on year 4 of my current boat and there's barely a mark on it from rocks. The 2 I had previous to that, which saw a lot more gravel, looked like crap. Monitoring the speed on gravel and going nice and slow also helps.
Sometimes it's out of your control though. Me and a buddy got our trailers and boats blasted on a trip up to LOTW in which we had to drive over 15 miles of newly placed sealcoat. Absolutely destroyed everything....rust all over the trailer now. Wish I had the rock guards prior. I have aluminum and can't imagine if I had a glass boat.
We didn't think it was that bad and ran slower and got home and almost cried.
