Once when I took my boat up to LVM for winterizing they had chip sealed the road leading into Lake Viking. Slowest I've ever driven with my boat. Even then I had to get out the bug and tar remover once I brought the boat home.

I saw a set of flaps like those the other day, but instead of clamping to the receiver, the flap supports were welded to the receiver.
Good idea, why didn't I think of it???
