The Bumper Bro is made of 3mm ABS plastic formed to fit specific kayak models, so it sits tight against the hull. You choose how to attach it, with adhesive tape or marine adhesive. It’s offered in a long list of bow and stern fits for Hobie, Native, Old Town, NuCanoe, Jackson, Feelfree, Bonafide and Crescent kayaks.

Good to know
- Select your exact kayak model and bow or stern position from the options, since each guard is formed to one hull.
- Clean the hull with isopropyl alcohol before attaching; a heat gun is optional but helps.
KayakDIY take: Rocky launches chew up plastic hulls over time, and a keel guard is cheaper than a hull repair. For more options, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
