What’s the benefit of rub rail alignment?
Unlike traditional guide-ons that touch the hull, PVC guides use the rub rail to prevent gel coat damage, preserve decals, and reduce wear.
Are these compatible with pontoon boats?
Yes. They are especially ideal for pontoons, fiberglass hulls, and boats with high-gloss finishes.
What’s the difference between the single and double set?
A Single Set includes two guides—great for smaller boats or experienced operators. A Double Set (4 guides) provides full control for centering longer watercraft or in windy conditions.
