Hey all!! So I’m pulling the plug on a new helix and wondering if you guys recommend purchasing the vantage protection system? Love to hear your feedback. Thanks

never heard of it so did a quick google. 1k for 5 years seems a bit steep.
this really feels like it's designed for someone who isn't going to take good care of their boat. if you follow a simple wipe down and clean regiment after every outing there's no reason why your new boat won't look new at year 5.

I am betting it's really only a couple hundred in material costs and the rest is dealer markup/profit just like the add-ons that the finance manager tries to peddle when buying a new car.

either way buy what you think makes sense for your boat but remember that if you sell the boat after 2 years I would be highly surprised if this adds to the resale value.

Yes I agree. I clean and wipe my boat down after each use and keep it in storage so too was finding it hard to justify the cost. Thanks for you input.
