The sea bird marine craft protector has fasteners for fastening the protector net to a rail on the deck and fasteners on stern of the marine craft, for pulling the protector net taut, and for maintaining the protector net at a minimum height above the deck and the superstructure. Additionally, the sea bird marine craft protector has strut support mounts, which are mounted on port deck and starboard deck of the marine craft, respectively, for supporting the struts therebetween, maintaining the struts in user selected positions, and for maintaining the minimum height of the protector net above the deck and the superstructure. The protector net is elevated to the minimum height, which is greater than the length of the longest sea bird's legs, that a user intends to protect the marine craft from. The protector net has a mesh, which is smaller than the width of the body of the smallest sea bird, that the user intends to protect the marine craft from and entering and landing therethrough. The minimum height and the mesh may vary, depending upon the user's needs. The sea bird marine craft protector may have a reel for letting out and winding up the protector net.
