    K.W. Show Ski makes nice rope guards out of stainless steel.

    You can order through Lake Elmo sports, or you may be able to order direct if you can find Karel's phone number somewhere. Just call either one, and tell them what boat you have, how many motors, give them a credit card number, and you will have a rope guard in a little while.

    You can call Karl direct at (616) 887-8707.

    He built me a "custom" rope guard for my 18 foot twin I'm building
    and it's really a beautiful piece. He's a great guy to deal with.

    I agree, Karl made us a rope guard for our twin as well as a 4-place trick release. Great to deal with, I highly recommend. :)
