Gator Guards SkegShield Skeg Guard - Mercury Mariner

Gator Guards SkegShield® Skeg Guard for Mercury Mariner outboards prevents gearcase damage and protects your skeg, installing in minutes to repair an already broken skeg. It is designed for boaters who want the toughest available repair and protection for their lower unit, engineered to fit this exact outboard or inboard.

Made of 18-gauge, mirror finish polished 316 marine grade stainless steel, SkegShield is further reinforced on the lower edge for protection that makes it twice as strong as any OEM skeg, and was the first to include a drain hole to prevent water retention and corrosion. There's no welding, messy glue, adhesive, epoxy, or curing time required, and shearable bolts help prevent gearcase damage on impact.
