Skid Wheels to Protect Boat Prop
Published 09/09/2021
Question:
Looking at getting a boat with a trailer that has a prop guard. i have a fairly steep driveway and the guard will certainly hit when backing onto it. It does not look to be structural and would be hesitant to attached the rollers to the guard, and not sure how to attach it to the frame due to the distance from it to the bottom of the guard. See attached pictures, any recommendations?

I suggest skid wheels, such as the Ultra-Fab Rotating, Hitch Mounted Skid Wheels, # UF48-979014. Attach this to the frame not the prop guard. See images and please note the link below to our full selection.
