There's a fairly new product out called Thru-Hull Saver that looks interesting. Anyone have any experience or knowledge of this kind of add-on? It looks a bit cheezy, but nonetheless, interesting for those of us who have plastic thru-hulls above the water line (OEM equipment) ... I know, I know - they should be changed. But, short of changing ... ?
 
divedaddy, didn't say so but device is a SS cover that is glued to existing face of plastic thru hull using 100% silicone. Dresses up weathered plastic (above the water line) thru hull fittings.
 
Actually looks like it might do what it claims and looks good too.

That's pretty much how I saw 'em - cheap glue-ons that not only don't look bad (if properly applied) but guard the plastic from UV damage. The idea of a glue on, however, just isn't quite sitting right.
 
I think the main point of these, other than looking nice, is to prevent the plastic thru hull from getting banged up, crushed or broken, the SS cap protects from that.

I like the idea for plastic thru hull, it will all spruce up old looking brass fittings.
