Thru hulls are fantastic for helping you evacuate unwanted water from your hull. Unfortunately, they can sometimes leave unsightly staining on the outside of your boat where they drain. The Dripper Guard is a simple but effective solution to keep your boat stain free. It simply sticks underneath your thru hull and prevents water and grime from building up underneath it. The Dripper Guard is available in two sizes — small and large — and two colors — black and white.

Boaters have been able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and create lasting memories on the water, with certain marinas dating back to the 1960s. As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
