After realizing this winter that gravel roads and towing aren't mixing for me, I did a full gel coat restoration which was a ton of work. Now I wanted to protect my time investment lol (and boat). After looking up solutions, I had a hard time justifying the costs of some of these solutions. I considered mud flaps for the car too, but none fit my hitch/car setup (not a pickup truck). So I McGyver'd a solution using CE Smith 5' guide bunks which were only $200CAD for 4 posts (and bunks which aren't being used). A bit of 2" pipe, caps and heavy duty screen + grommets and bungee cords. Tada! I think it looks pretty decent and that's where ALL the damage was located in my case.
