While it likely often protected the prop and let me get into some pretty shallow water, around the dock it was miserable Tunnel hull boats do fine in forward but reverse can be a real issue. Mine did everything well but back up. Since I had to back into my slip, it was a nightmare to try and fight the current and get the boat to move in reverse under any sort of directional control. In reverse the prop thrust was directed more downward than forward. For a boat too heavy to manually move around, that was a real issue.</blockquote>
