It is also commonly used to restore function to a skeg that has already been damaged or partially broken, since installation requires as little as 2 to 3 inches of the original skeg remaining.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt from 18 gauge marine grade 316 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish, the SkegGuard conforms to the shape of the skeg and includes a drain hole at the bottom so water cannot collect and cause corrosion or freeze damage. Installation is a simple four-step process: using a rubber mallet, the guard is slid onto the existing skeg and gently tapped until fully seated, then the pre-drilled holes are used as a template to drill through the skeg with a 1\/4-inch drill bit, typically completed in under 10 minutes without special tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Megaware Keelguard 27191 is designed to fit Volvo DP Dual Prop drives from 1996-2006 (NO DPS-A\/B models).
