Prop Guard / Propeller Accidents
Propeller Injury Avoidance Devices
and Virtual Propeller Guards

Boat Propeller guards / prop guards, propeller guard technical reports, research, and patents, propeller strike accidents, injuries and the resulting legal cases, propeller guard manufacturers, manatee propeller issues, and the use of sensors to detect people near the propeller (Virtual Propeller Guards) are covered here. The Propeller Guard Information Center provides easy access to information on those and many other aspects of propeller safety to boat and marine drive manufacturers, regulators, the U.S. Coast Guard, engineers, inventors, boaters, and others as part of our effort to reduce the frequency and severity of recreational boat propeller accidents.

Thank you for your interest in propeller safety and welcome to the Propeller Guard Information Center.

Our visitors from other nations sometimes use these terms: helices, propellor, propelor, shield, protector.
