Great idea!

Of course at $300 each the next problem will probably be theft......

Kinda like paying $300 for a cooler! Somebody will swipe it the first opportune moment.

Neat concept though, but not $300 neat. Looks like it would wrap around a pylon to make a nice bumper too.

Neat product.

I think the key is going to be personalizing them to make them less likely to be stolen, like having them embroidered with your boat name.

Also, I would think that a different attachment system would also help in that arena; perhaps using mini pin cleats on each side of the motor cowlings.

Why not just tie the boat up properly and the motors will not hit the dock? Would you tie up a stearn drive so that the transom could rub and bang on the dock? 300 bucks to say I am an idiot and can't tie my boat up properly!
