Don't know the product.

Just looking at it I'd guess it would make it easier for one to get stuck
aground. I get into the mud fairly often and the skeg on my engine just
plows a furrow as I go on through. Looks to me as though that gadget would
scoop up a fair bit of mud if it grounds.

Well, wouldn't you know it....I installed a brand new prop before the boat
was splashed and I ran into a submerged log today, doing some damage to
that prop. The old one goes on and the not so new one comes off to get
repaired.

After I got home I surfed the net and ran across this product called
Hydro-Shield............ http://www.hydro-shield.com/why.htm It
attaches to the bottom of the lower unit skeg and is advertised to not
only protect the prop and skeg but improve performance.

I was thinking of putting on a set of Doel-Fins but this product seems to
offer more benefits, if what they claim is true.

Has anyone used this product on the I/O or O/B?

TIA for your answers.
