PRODUCT DETAILS
13" Blue Propeller Guard for 40–65 HP Outboards
Heavy-duty 13-inch blue PropGuard propeller safety guard designed for selected 40–65 HP outboard engines.
Manufactured from high-impact, lightweight and non-corroding material, the PropGuard forms a protective cage around the propeller, helping protect people, marine life and the propeller itself.
Ideal for leisure boats, training boats, sailing clubs, rescue applications and boats regularly operating in shallow water or around underwater hazards.
Size & Application
13" Propeller Guard
Suitable for:
- Most 40–65 HP outboard engines
- Propellers up to approximately 13" diameter
- Standard gearcase applications
IMPORTANT – Diameter, NOT Pitch
The 13-inch measurement refers to the propeller diameter/guard size – NOT the propeller pitch.
Please check your actual propeller diameter before ordering.
BigFoot & High Thrust Engines
BigFoot and High Thrust applications generally require the NEXT SIZE UP.
These engines use a larger gearcase and propeller than many standard outboards of the same horsepower.
If you are unsure, please contact us with your engine model and propeller size before ordering.
Suitable for Major Outboard Brands
PropGuard can be fitted to a wide range of outboards from manufacturers including:
- Mercury
- Mariner
- Yamaha
- Honda
- Suzuki
- Tohatsu
- Johnson
- Evinrude
Fitment is determined primarily by the engine/gearcase and propeller dimensions rather than brand alone.
Propeller Safety & Protection
The PropGuard is a two-piece protective cage designed to completely surround the outboard propeller.
The two halves fit around the propeller in a clamshell-style arrangement and attach to the outboard's cavitation plate and skeg using the supplied mounting system.
There are:
- No moving components
- No electrical wiring
- No hydraulic hoses
Installation can normally be completed using basic hand tools.
Benefits of a Propeller Guard
Helps Improve Safety
Provides a physical barrier around the rotating propeller, helping reduce the risk of direct contact with:
- Swimmers
- Family and passengers
- Divers
- Water-sports users
- Marine life
Helps Protect Your Propeller
The guard provides additional protection when operating around:
- Rocks
- Underwater obstacles
- Shallow water
- Launching areas
- Other submerged hazards
Reduced Risk of Rope Contact
The protective cage can help reduce the chance of ropes and other objects coming directly into contact with the propeller.
Ideal for Training & Learner Drivers
A propeller guard can provide additional reassurance when boats are being operated by less experienced drivers.

Important – Please Check Before Ordering
Do not select a PropGuard by horsepower alone.
Before ordering, please check:
- Outboard horsepower
- Engine model
- Gearcase type
- Propeller diameter
- Whether the engine is Standard, BigFoot or High Thrust
Please Remember
13" refers to propeller/guard DIAMETER – not pitch.
BigFoot and High Thrust applications require careful checking and may need the next PropGuard size up.
If you are unsure, please send us your engine model and current propeller size and we will help you select the correct PropGuard.
