[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 368308, member: 6937"] I put a keel guard on my jet boat, as well as my Triton 1650. The one on my Triton fell off, though, because of the abuse it has endured from pulling up to oyster reefs, and at the landing. It lasted about 4 years, even with that abuse. For the average person, and average use of a boat, they should last a long time, as long as you're not running it up on a concrete ramp, or oyster rocks. I think for that boat I may end up welding an aluminum angle down the center strake, at least for the first 4-5 ft, as this is where it really takes the hits. [/QUOTE]
