I was looking at those too but wondered about them being just spring
loaded
with no kind of adjustment.

I added a Whale Tail to my 16' Waco w/ 50HP Force for a different
reason.
I
wanted to reduce porpoising. It worked, and I think I gained a little
bit
of speed coming out of the hole. I also lost about 1.5 to 2 mph top
end.

I have heard that the automatic trim tabs really work for a faster hole
shot, but they are also more expensive than a Whale Tail.

Thought this group my might be my best bet for the right knowledge, so
here
goes. I have a 16 foot Scout with a 60hp that I wanted to be able to
plane
at a lower speed and get on plane sooner with the family on it. It
seems
that one of these hydrofoil fins that attach to the outboard might
help.
Are any are better than another? Also, if I'm alone in the boat going
at
full throttle, will it push the front of the boat down too far? I've
noticed that even now when alone I have to tilt the motor quite a bit
to
get
the front up and even it out. Any opinions?

Thanks
