    Good, but I improved it to work for me

    I found that I needed a short pull rope to transport a towable across lakes so I installed a short rope through protector. It worked wonderful. I might need to buy another protector soon!...Read complete review

    This didn't help at all.

    First time we used it ... sucked up the rope. It doesn't help keep it away from intake. Sorry... if you have a better suggestion please let us know!

      Comments about Kwik Tek Impeller Protector Only:

      I use this product on all my towables behind the watercraft. It prevents the rope from getting into the impeller suction. Works well. I've also used the longer kick back protector which works well both behind the watercraft and our I/O boat.

            Easy to use and keeps rope away from intake grate, but will not accept large diameter tow ropes unless you untie knot on end and then run thru.

            Good for the driver and tuber/skier to know the line is NOT under the PWC. Could be a bit longer to take the rope out even further thru this float.

                This was a great way to protect the ski from the tow rope. It makes it easier to see where the tow rope is. It is sturdy and gets the job done. Would suggest using one.

                    Does this prevent the rope from splashing in a tuber's face?

                      A:

                      No it does not prevent rope splash. It sits directly behind the watercraft or boat and prevents the rope from getting sucked up into the watercraft or propeller.

                      A:

                      The ski rope slides through the protector and attaches to the tow hook on the PWC. The protector has a velcro loop that attaches to the tow hook as well to keep it from sliding down the rope once in place.
