Hydro Shield will get your boat on plane faster, allowing you to remain on plane at lower speeds and rpm's. It also improves handling and lowers your fuel burn at low and cruising RPM settings. Hydro-Shield will also protect your propeller from damage due to underwater impacts, and its 316th's marine grade stainless steel bracket system acts as a skeg guard, strengthening and reinforcing the skeg.

Made from an energy-absorbing plastic compound, Hydro Shield can withstand impacts, natural or man-made. Even if your boat strikes natural hazards like rocks, coral, oyster beds, or sandbars, or man-made hazards like lobster and crab pots, Hydro Shield maintains its integrity and protects your prop and skeg.

Older Boston Whaler needed a boost to plane

16 foot Ventura was struggling to plane with 70 hp motor. Was considering buying a new 115 hp motor at the cost of 10,000. Bought this hydro shield instead. Took about 1 hour for my plumber boyfriend to install. Boats performance improvement 100 percent, Finally happy with our boat!! Thanks Hydro-Shield

Best investment purchase I’ve made for my boating experience

Installed the hydro shield on my 30 hp mercury that’s on a 15 ft Alaskan smoker craft. Thank you guys for an amazing product. By myself in boat could not get on plane without 2 twenty lbs sand bags in front for weight. Now in seconds I’m up and no porpoising. Can’t wait to try it in rough water I know it’s going to be great. Thanks for a fantastic product will brag about this to all boaters I come across.
