Location: Kodiak, AK | From what I understand, they are ideal for underpowered boats, helping get out of the hole. Won't (or shouldn't at least) do anything for your top speed or fuel economy, as it should be out of the water while on plane.
What are you calling "underpowered" by 20? Is your boat rated for 225 and you have a 200 or is it rated for 60 and you have 40? 60/40 will have more net results than 225/200 for example. The lower your hp rating, the higher the percentage of max hp 20 is. Does that make sense? Not sure if I'm saying it right.
Basically, if you're rated at 225 and you've got a 200, you may not see much improvement. But if you're rated at 60 and you have a 40, you'll see more.
