Prop guard - which one?

[donnie d]

Before I buy one of these things, anyone have a particular recommendation for my high thrust 9.9 Yamaha?

adventure marine? Mac’s? Other?

FYI - I have a model 4 Mac’s I need to part ways with...wrong size!

cheers

I went with the Adventure Marine, nice quality.

had to order it with short arms though for the 9.9.

Buy a Halo, less hydro-dynamic drag. Much more compact than previous designs. Les stress on motor when the kicker drags while spooling up your main power. I just bought one at Sherway in Victoria.

halos are ok but are very susceptible to debris getting between prop/guard which is the biggest down fault of any guard

Ive both types. I’m liking the Halo more. I guess it depends on the application. I’m sure each has it’s benefits and disadvantage
