whale tail / hydro foil question

[C3KNIGHT]

I need help chosing which whaletail/ hydrofoil for my 1982 Beachcraft 190 mako with omc120hp and omc 400 drive

Why do you need it?

to get the boat on plane faster

I'd look at the prop first. What are you running.

I had a tail on my '72. Did much better when I took the tail off.

Welcome aboard.

I've never had a tail before , so can't comment on that.

but If I were you I would look into Bennett hydraulic trim tabs . They make my boat jump up on plane ( even when loaded up ) plus you can correct a number of other situations with them .

get more motor, the 120hp was anemic at best when the motor was new. almost 40 years later, I bet your motor is tired.
