The invention is an apparatus consisting of a durable, low friction flexible material that can be easily deployed when landing a boat onto the shoreline of a water-body. The invention when deployed provides a barrier/cushion/mat between the keel of the boat and the sandy/rocky shoreline thereby protecting the boat keel from damage and wear. The apparatus may include a model that can be permanently mounted to the bow area of a boat or can be a stowable model that can be easily deployed by the boat operator. Further to this, the mat/apparatus may be motorized retractable, manually retractable, tethered or manually positioned.
