I have one on my boat. I never had problem loading my boat on any ramp except the one and only time I used Ames Farm. For some reason the boat made contact with the cross support on the trailer due to the angle the boat came up on and damaged the glass. Keel guard quickley became insurance for me. I bought mine directly from the original Keel Guard manufacturer and it has to be installed by a certified shop. Goes on with Pneumatics and special epoxies. The cheaper ones they sell in Cabelas etc work but fall off in time. If you want I can look up my info which is at home and post it. Mine has been on since spring 1998.
Proline... where-as I will need to install a new one before next year, I'd like to know more about the brand you mentioned. If you could post a link or email it to me, that would be great. Also, who did you have install it? Thanks a lot.
Tech 5 Keel Guard 1 Middle St., Portsmouth NH 03801
1-800-894-8619. I had mine installed for $295 at Rockingham Boat Repair, 553 Route 11 Hampstead NH 603-329-4481. Not sure if the boat place is still there but I did check on Tech 5 and they are still in Portsmouth.
