| My keel guard is starting to peel loose from the boat. Right now, it only the top inch that is off the hull but I believe it will continue to separate if not fixed. Does anyone have some experience in making this repair? What should be used and how should it be done?
Thanks
Ray

| Mine is too. i would ask your dealer. I heard there was an issue with some of the adhesive that was used on the keep guards of a certain brand. |

Location: minocqua, wi. | those will continue to rip and then the cost of removal and re-installation will make you crazy. when you put the same new one on it will fail too. i did 2 before realizing it was a never-ending battle. i'm not sure what the new owner did, but i think he's replaced with a Hamby's and it hasn't failed. don't let your dealer talk you into another rubber one ... at any cost.
also ... take a look at your bunks and make sure you're not rubbing anything while loading.
the problem you are experiencing is a pain in the butt and worse ... it's expensive!! |

Location: menasha wi 54952 | If it is only a small area you can make the repair yourself using a quick set clear epoxy. Any hardware store, Menards, Lowes, Home Depot, Fleet Farm.......will have it. Done it myself many times. Easy to use and works great without peeling again. |
