My local Four Winns dealer said they dont make the awesome stainless steel bow scuff plate for the H180. Do you know if they sell an aftermarket?

Any decent fab shop can make you one probably cheaper then what FW wants. There's also aftermarket universal plastic ones for under $200

Not sure what's called. Was black or white really thick plastic like 10-15ft long with 3m adhesive tape.

Ric, I think what you are talking about is a keel protector. What he's looking for is the scuff plate for the bow roller.... there was a thread on this about a year ago if I recall...

http://www.smwebhead.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1490&hilit=scuff+plate+stainless

This thread indicates the FW scuff plate is available for all 05 and later models... maybe contact FW direct rather than just your dealer.

Thanks for the link Aussie. Looks like the guy has a 190, not a 180. I wonder if it will fit.

I seem to recall from a previous thread that a scuff plate was not available for the 180 from four winns. These scuffbuster plates are available aftermarket though....
