I was thinking about putting a hydrofoil on the outdrive of my 248 vista in order to be able to stay on plane at low speeds. I had one on my old 23' foot cuddy with a merc single prop and it worked great. However, I'm not sure if it will work correctly or as well with the volvo duo prop i have on the vista. any comments/suggestions? thanks

Don't you have Trim Tabs? If not, save the money you would spend on the whale tail and get a set of Bennett's!

+1 - - - Whale Tails are only needed if you can't trim and tab the boat.
