Megaware SkegGuard 27412 for Mercury V8 200-300

The Megaware SkegGuard® 27412 is an inexpensive solution to a broken skeg, saving hundreds of dollars over skeg repair or replacement. This model fits Mercury 200, 225, 250, and 300 V8 Pro XS Torque Master with a 4.8" gearcase, curved, 2019-present.

Constructed of high quality marine grade 316 stainless steel, SkegGuard incorporates an extra reinforced wear tab across the bottom where the skeg is most vulnerable, with a 3mm thickened lower plate that withstands damage from hidden rocks, debris, or accidental ramp dragging. It conforms to your lower unit so there's no discernible drag or performance compromise, and a drain hole keeps water from collecting and going stagnant.
