Subject: RE: whale tails


I had a tail on my old boat with a 50 hp Mariner. Hate to burst the happy bubble but here is what I noticed- it brought on plane faster but took away a little on top speed cause of the drag I assume. The drag caused me to use more gas!!!! Took it off and I got better mileage. Something to ponder about. If it was that great, manufactures would be widening there fins and using it as a marketing tool to sell their engines.
