What suggestions do you guys have for protecting the boat while trailering on gravel roads? Let me here some specific brands and maybe some links. I am shopping.

I use ears, as soon as you hear stones hitting the wheel wells then they are hitting and chipping the boat. Low speed = low chips, high speed = high chips.
I use a Towtector. If I towed on gravel a lot, I would probably look into a guard that mounts to the front of the trailer as well.

Rock Knockers are the best (or something like them). http://www.montanarockguards.com/
In my experiences the Tow Tectors suck on real gravel roads (Canada) and make the problem worse. Tow Tectors are perfect if you drive tar roads to concrete ramps.

I use rock tamers as well. They work for most rocks, but the rock knockers probably offer the best protection.
I have this hanging in my garage that I will part with.
Bought it for a short term gravel road detour a few summers
ago.
Mounts to the 2 x 2 receiver hitch.
I have a Towtecter. Don’t run a lot of gravel but I like it and seems to stop most gravel.
