Second Chance--some of my friends have jet drives...up to 90hp. They work excellently in these rock infested rivers.

I know that I praise the rock gaurd alot on here but make no mistake, I am not advocating the abuse of good common sense. As stated above, nothing will save you from an impact at WOT, but the gaurd saves your skeg from those low impact collisions that would otherwise take a chunk out. It has performed well at medium speeds also, but I would'nt have intentionally trusted it if I had known that the rock was there

Just like most have already stated, when you know you are in rock country, slow down and trim up.
