Overview

Gator Guards SkegShield Skeg Guard for Merc/Verado, manufacturer part number SS00524-DP.

SkegShield® Skeg Guard for Merc/Verado

Prevent gearcase damage and protect your skeg with SkegShield® by Gator Guards. Installs in minutes to repair an already broken skeg with 27 American-made models engineered to fit your exact outboard or inboard. If your engine model is not listed, unfortunately, we do not have a model that will fit your specific needs.

With your keel guarded and your bow shielded from damage, there is one part of the boat that is still exposed to excessive risk of damage, and that is your skeg. Gator Guards offers an extensive line of SkegShield skeg guards to protect your outboard or stern drive from damage.

All SkegShields are made of 18-gauge, mirror finish polished 316 marine grade stainless steel. The SkegShield is further reinforced on the lower edge for protection that makes SkegShield twice as strong as any OEM skeg. SkegShield doesn’t stop there, we were the first to include a drain hole to prevent water retention & corrosion!

27 Models available to fit your exact outboard or inboard engine. Mercury, Yamaha, Evinrude, Mercruiser, Mariner, Suzuki, Johnson, Honda, Force, Volvo Penta, and Tohatsu. Use the engine guide above to find your SkegShield

Features:

  • The toughest repair and protection for your lower unit
  • Easy DIY installation
  • Reinforced lower edge for 2X the strength
  • Shearable bolts prevent gearcase damage
  • Drain hole to prevent water retention
  • Made of durable 18-gauge 316 marine grade mirror polished Stainless Steel
  • Prevent costly repairs
  • Maintain the value of your boat
  • 3-year warranty

Installation Tips:

All SkegShields are easy to install. There is no welding—no messy glue, adhesive or epoxy, and best of all no curing or down time. You’ll be back on the water in under 30 minutes and since we don’t have a foot or skid plate welded on the bottom we won’t affect your boat’s performance. If your motor is still under warranty – please check with your manufacturer about drilling holes in the skeg to mount a skeg guard.
