Installation Notes
- Position the hydrofoil onto the anti-ventilation plate of your outboard or sterndrive, ensuring it is centered.
- With the hydrofoil held firmly in place, use a marker to accurately mark the four mounting hole locations on the plate.
- Remove the hydrofoil and carefully drill the four holes using the provided drill bit. Ensure the drill is perpendicular to the plate to prevent misalignment.
- Place the hydrofoil back onto the plate, align the holes, and insert the stainless steel bolts from the top.
- Secure the hydrofoil by attaching and tightening the nuts from below. Do not overtighten. Check for a firm, secure fit before operating your vessel.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Will this hydrofoil fit my specific engine?
This is a universal hydrofoil designed to fit most outboard and sterndrive motors from 40 to 300 HP. For a guaranteed fit, compare your anti-ventilation plate's dimensions to the hydrofoil's size of 16.93 × 14.17 inches to ensure adequate mounting surface.
Do I have to drill into my engine's cavitation plate?
Yes, permanent installation requires drilling four holes into the anti-ventilation (cavitation) plate to securely bolt the hydrofoil. All necessary hardware, including a drill bit, is included.
What performance benefits can I expect?
A properly installed hydrofoil helps your boat get on plane faster, maintains planing at lower speeds, reduces or eliminates porpoising (bow bouncing), and can improve overall fuel economy. The Turbo Trac design also enhances steering control and stability.
