: I've also been looking for ways to protect the keel. Something like
: Keelguard (http://www.keelguard.com/keelguard.html) for kayaks.
: I've heard of people trying "leading edge tape" used
: for aircraft wings
: (http://www.aircraftspruce.com/menus/cs/tape_leadingedge.html)
: but haven't tried it myself.

Thanks Eric, those look like good options and far cheaper than the pre made keel strips protectors.
Might give the tape a try.
