Kevlar prop guard
Since we have drives with razor blades for props is there a safe slip on prop guard to cover these. My kids know not to jump off the back of the boat but sometimes I worry that a friend or passer by might not know what's lurking in the water. I was thinking a Kevlar layered bag ...puncture proof and a steering wheel cover to remind us they are on. SSM drives and Arnesons inherently are not under a platforms. We beach and swim with a lot of people around it would be nice for the extra protection. We have seen 3 sever cuts in the past few years.

Prop Guards
I was thinking about this and voila im looking through the threads and you guys beat me to the punch. I need something similar. my new boat comes with 2 sets of cleavers and many places where I boat in Michigan I can see somebody casually walking buy and just nicking those props while we are in shallow anchorage. I was thinking about going with a larger set of the nylon prop bags and then lining with thick Kevlar.
