Stop the Rigging Hose Wearing Down Your Boat
On most boats the outboard rigging hose rubs against the fibreglass at the back, and over time it wears it down. This soft neoprene sleeve sits between the two, protects the finish and tidies up the back of the boat. It wraps straight around the hose, so nothing on the boat has to come apart.
How it goes on
Nothing on the boat comes apart
The double-stitched hook-and-loop closure runs from one end of the sleeve to the other. Open it, lay the sleeve over the rigging hose where it already sits, and press it closed.
No cables to disconnect, nothing to thread through an end.
Fitting
Measure, wrap, trim
1. Measure
Wrap a string around the rigging hose, mark where the two ends meet and add 2.5 cm (1 in). That is your size around.
2. Wrap
Open the closure, lay the sleeve over the hose and press it shut from one end to the other.
3. Trim
If the sleeve is longer than your rigging hose, cut it down so it fits properly.

Questions people ask
Which motors does it fit?
It fits rigging hoses of about 23 cm or 25 cm around. Measure your own hose with a string before you order, as hoses differ between motors.
How do I know what size to get?
Wrap a string around the rigging hose, measure where the ends meet and add 2.5 cm (1 in). Lengths are 97 cm and 114 cm, and you can cut a long one down.
Do I have to take anything apart?
No. The closure runs the full length, so you wrap the sleeve around the hose where it already sits.
Which colours come in the long size?
The 114 cm length comes in black. The 97 cm length comes in black, grey, blue and red.
