Default prop guard?

I'm interested in getting one of the "ducted" prop guards for increased fuel
efficiency and earlier planing and was curious if anyone has any experience
with these. I'll be using it on a 19' bowrider with a 210hp Mercruiser I/O.
One concern was an increased risk to the outdrive tilt mechanism if you hit
something with the guard, rather than just damaging the prop without it.
Don't know if that's a valid concern or not. Any experiences would be
greatly appreciated.
