manjo39 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I'm looking for a small piece (maybe 6"x8") of vinyl wrap for my boat. It's for the top of my gunnel on the bow. Sometimes when I lift my trolling motor the propeller hits the boat. I was thinking of putting a small piece of vinyl at that spot to prevent against nicks to the paint. I live near Bass Pro Shops and my boat is near Lindsay, anyone know where I could get a piece of vinyl wrap. Also, anyone use a keel guard and/or skeg guard? I'd like to hear about your experiences with it. I want to protect those areas as well as they are suseptible to bottom scrapes. (I fish shallow alot).

lew Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Also, anyone use a keel guard and/or skeg guard? I'd like to hear about your experiences with it. I want to protect those areas as well as they are suseptible to bottom scrapes. (I fish shallow alot). I've got a KeelGuard on my boat and it's excellent. I put my boat right on top of a truck sized rock on Nippissing last summer and not only did it protect my boat, there's not even a scuff on the guard. I'd definetely recommend it to anyone with a glass boat that fishes in rocky areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTHM Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Go to a vinyl sign shop, they will have what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowPoke Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 3M makes a clear vinyl tape that is perfect for your application. Detail shops use this stuff for the "invisible bra" to protect hoods from stone chips. This stuff is so durable that a stone will dent before it scratches the paint. Check with a local car/truck accessory shop or detail shop; they might have scraps available. Failing that, I could give you some 2" wide strips to make what you need. PM me if you're interested.
