never heard of it. Sounds like it could be dangerous if your going 30 - 50 mph and it comes off and hits your waterskier buddy in the nut sack. They have those bolt on skeg covers but those aren't for high speed either.
If I don't ask any questions, I'll never learn anything.

I have looked around for them and got no joy.
I missed one on ebay and was gutted, it only made $10 , to me it was worth that just as a show piece.
mercury made them apparently.
somewhere I have the little brochure about them, to me they look cute, and if you made an alloy one would be perfect.
if I find it I will post it on here.
