I have used the stingray hydrofils on a 17ft (50 hp and 18 ft lund 115hp and an 18 ft warrior 150 hp. It is one of most performance changing things you can add to a boat for the least amount of money. It has 2 distinct advantages. First it will get your boat on plane faster. Second it will keep your boat from cantering (rolling) when you turn side ways in waves. It makes the boat ride flat with the wave in rough water making it easier to maintain your balance when casting. They work very well for this on boats with narrower beams. They do not help much on wider beam boats. Typically, you will lose a mile or two of top end speed on any boat. Hope this helps!
