    White Caps on my past 2 boats and I have nothing but good things to say about their product and their service. The looks, function, and ease of installtion is also a big plus.

    I have never owned a pair of Wackers, so I can’t comment on their product or service, but when I priced out my 1st pair, the White Caps were significantly less. I have never had an issue with them and I love to back troll on Mille Lacs and have done so many times in BIG waves.

    Have you priced out your boat yet?? Who is cheaper?

    Whitecaps. Great product. Far less money than the wackers and the owner takes care of his customers like family.

    This will be my 5th season with Wave Wackers on my boat. My boat was already packaged with Wackers on it so I did not shop them. I have been happy with the results with no performance complaints while I have put my time in on Mille Lacs back trolling while rigging in big waves.

    White Caps for me, too. Three years so far. No problems and very affordable.

    I like the WhiteCaps, too. I just put some on my Crestliner, and has some on the SmokerCraft I just sold, and they perform real well.

    I have a set of White Cap Spash Guards on my current boat. I have had Wave Wackers on the last two others prior. The White Cap Spash Guards are very reasonable priced and perform vary well for me. I would highly recommend them in all cases!!

    Great product at a great price!!!

    Walleyes and Whitecaps have ALWAYS been a great match!

    RF,

    Both are the best of the best on the market in my opinion. I’m friends with the owner of the Wave Wackers, so I lean towards them. However, the testimonials here about Whitecaps are proof positive they are also a great product.

    I personally don’t think you can make a wrong decision here.

    Whitecap, hands down!
    I lost a guard between my motor and kicker at a tournament, and Brian had a new one waiting for me when I got home! Fantastic customer service, very high quality workmanship.

    I have not owned either brand but two boats ago I had a different brand on my boat and with ”one” back up into a wave on a windy day after dropping off my friend at the dock one of mine broke in half. Sounds like to me like I should of had the Whitecap brand for sure. My stupidity cost me.

    Thanks, Bill

    I’m on my 4th boat and 4th set of guards. Been using Whitecap for over 10 years. I beat on my splashguards badly. They have yet to fail me.. Very easy to install yourself..
