[QUOTE="jethro, post: 407811, member: 12381"] My 14' Starcraft has a '95 25hp motor that came with a foil on it. One day I took it off to see how different it was and with two people in the boat it took almost 40 seconds to come up on plane no matter how I trimmed the motor. With the foil on it's basically instant. Now once it was on plane I was easily 3-4mph faster, but no thanks- I put it back on. Also the biggest advantage is I can maintain plane at much slower speeds which is great for fuel economy. [/QUOTE]
