                  Hydro-Shield is a skeg-mounted hydrofoil that fits on most outboard and inboard / outboard motors. It protects your boat's propeller from underwater impacts, improves your boat's performance, and shields marine mammals from injury.

                  • Applications: Outboards and inboard / outboards (choose correct size and angle for your boat)
                  • Mounts on skeg below the prop
                  • Simple installation
                    • Installation is a two-step process that only requires four bolts and lock nuts
                    • It can be completed in minutes, without messy glue or professional-grade welding

                  Questions

                  What is recommended, 35 or 45 degree for 25hp or less, and what does this do? The motor is on a small 14-16’ aluminum boat. Thank you.

                  Our web site shows a "Bracket Selection Guide"/chart outlining what degree (35 or 45) is appropriate for various motors and motor horse powers. On the search bar, enter the sku number (#870171). Under "Product Details" and at the bottom of that page click the selection "Bracket selection Guide". It will show you what degree is appropriate per horse power AND engine manufacture. This section on our site further explains the several purposes/uses of the brackets.
