    Thoughts on a Keel Protector for an AVX?

    What does the collective have to say; need or not? Results of some that have been installed and preferences would be interesting to hear as well.

    I would definitely think about it if they could get it to stick. Why ruin a nice paint job?

    Thanks for that dartman, I have seen that before and it prompted me to put up this post.

    The website specifically calls out Vexus as a hull that the product will work on so that is encouraging.

    I am hoping someone drops in with a real world experience. I know it's a painted hull and it's going to get scratched, I'm just looking to reduce the potential for wear on the keel.

    I put a gator-guard on my Ranger RT188 & am pleased with it.
