[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 421463, member: 19781"] If it was mine and I used the boat in rocky rivers I'd consider an inexpensive disposable guard. Find a piece of thin aluminum channel like this about 1" deep: [img]https://www.johnsonrollforming.com/images/10.jpg[/img] Then cut the top edge to match the angle of the plate, the bottom edge to match the angle of the tip end. even though your front surface is curved a bit, I think once you hold a straight edge up to it you will find that the amount of curvature is minimal and within the depth of the channel. Then I'd simply glue that on with a good quality epoxy. Make a couple and have them ready for a quick fix next time it hits. [/QUOTE]
