28' Protector Targa Retrofit

The OEM collars on this Protector were made using Hypalon fabrics. After 10 + years in service Hypalon collars tend to "chalk", causing the tube to wear off on items that touch it. This includes clothing. Using urethane based fabrics you wont have that issue moving forward. 

Completely finished replacement.
