How it goes on
Nothing on the boat comes apart
Double-stitched Velcro from one end to the other, so the sleeve wraps around the rigging hose right where it already sits.
-
01
Measure
Wrap a string around the rigging hose, measure the length where the two ends meet, and add an inch. That is your size.
-
02
Wrap
Open the Velcro, lay the sleeve over the hose and press it closed from one end to the other. Nothing gets disconnected.
-
03
Trim
If the sleeve is longer than your rigging hose, cut the length down so it fits properly.

Before you buy
The questions people actually ask us about the two sleeves.
Outboard motor sleeve
Which motors does it fit?
We have pre-measured three of them: Mercury 4-stroke 9 in, Mercury 2-stroke 10 in, Yamaha SHO 9 in. Treat those as starting points rather than guarantees — measure your own rigging hose before you order.
How do I know what size to get?
Wrap a string around the rigging hose, measure the length where the two ends meet, and add an inch. That is the size you want. Lengths come 38 in and 45 in, and you can cut a long one down to fit.
Do I have to take anything apart to fit it?
No. The double-stitched Velcro runs from one end of the sleeve to the other, so you wrap it around the hose where it already sits. Nothing on the boat comes apart.
What does it actually do?
The rigging hose rubs against the fiberglass on the back of the boat and wears it down over time. The sleeve is the soft neoprene layer that sits between the two — and it tidies up the back of the boat while it is there.
What colors and sizes can I get?
Black, Grey, Blue and Red. Nine or ten inches around, thirty-eight or forty-five inches long — the 45 in lengths are Black only. Everything is in stock.
Trolling motor sleeve
Which motors does it fit?
Minnkota Ultrex, Fortrex, Maxxum, Quest and Edge, the Lowrance Ghost, plus Motor Guide Tour, x3 and x5. Those are the motors we have fitted it to — if yours is not on that list, measure your cable run against the 60 in length before you order.
Do I have to unplug anything to fit it?
No. The velcro strip runs the full length of the sleeve, top to bottom, so you wrap it straight over the cables where they already sit. Nothing gets disconnected and nothing has to be threaded through an end.
What size is it?
One size: 60 inches long and 5.5 inches across.
What does it actually do?
It keeps all your cables organized in one wrap instead of leaving them loose, so the setup stays tidy and the boat looks sharp. That is the job — it organizes the cables, it is not armor for them.
What colors can I get?
Black, Grey, Blue and Red. All four are in stock in the one size.
