Description
KeelGuard® - 4' - Black The Original Do-It-Yourself Keel Protector - Protect Your Investment Against Sand, Rocks & Ramps Wear and damage to your boat’s keel can break down its protective gelcoat finish, allowing water to reach and destroy the fiberglass laminates. Megaware KeelGuard®, the powerful abrasion-resistant protector, prolongs the life of your boat like nothing else.
Megaware KeelGuard® Engineering Every aspect of the patented Megaware KeelGuard® has been designed with boat designers and 3M® engineers. Many factors contribute to its success.
A precise, abrasive-resistant blend of polymers and urethanes achieve optimal durability and pliability. A pressure-sensitive adhesive creates strength, while permanently bonding and sealing Megaware KeelGuard®’s contoured edges to the hull surface.
Angled grooves produce hydrodynamic channels, creating air pockets and providing a slicker surface. The perfect combination of these factors makes the Megaware KeelGuard® the easiest keel protector to install, and gives it unparalleled quality and dependability.
Megaware KeelGuard® Colors & Sizes Megaware KeelGuard® comes in 11 great looking colors to match virtually any boat. All colors are UV-stabilized for true color that lasts a lifetime.
Megaware KeelGuard® is available in nine standard lengths or can be ordered in custom lengths. Lifetime Warranty Megaware guarantees this Megaware KeelGuard® (to the original purchaser), against abrasive wear and adhesion failure during normal use of your boat, for as long as you own your boat.

Boat Outfitting — frequently asked
- What material should marine hardware be made of?
- For most exposed hardware, 316 stainless steel is the marine standard — it resists salt corrosion far better than 304 stainless or plated steel. Marine-grade aluminum, UV-stabilized nylon, and King StarBoard are also common for non-structural fittings.
- How do I know a replacement seat or hatch will fit?
- Measure the mounting pattern (bolt spacing), the cutout or base dimensions, and any post diameter or height on the part you’re replacing. Match those to the new part’s specs — outfitting parts follow common sizes but are not universal, so confirming dimensions avoids returns.
- Do I need backing plates for deck hardware?
- For anything that takes load — grab rails, cleats, ladder steps, seat pedestals — yes. A backing plate spreads the load across a larger area of the deck or transom so fasteners don’t pull through under stress.
