: 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

: but haven't tried it myself.

I wouldn't use the keelgaurd on a kayak. It is meant for powerboats and seadoos. I would suggest keeleazy. It is a lot more suited towards kayaks and canoes.

No I do to have anything to do with them, just have used their product and can say it is good.
