    How is the EasyTroller different from other trolling plates?

    Under power, prop thrust can bend or damage the typical trolling plate.  The EastyTroller trolling plate flexes to divert the prop thrust downward, preventing damage to the plate itself.



    What are Hydrofoil Fins?


    As the hydrofoil moves through the water, it acts like a wing, raising the back of the boat in the water. This helps boats improve their hole shot and maintain a plane at lower rpms which can improve fuel economy. By raising the stern the trim is adjusted and the boat planes with the bow in a lower position, which increases visibility and safety. If you want to reach a plane more quickly, struggle keeping your boat on a plane, plane in a bow high attitude, experience porpoising or chine-walking, hydrofoil fins may offer some real performance improvements. The extent to which a hydrofoil will improve your boat's performance depends on your equipment and the conditions where you typically boat.

    Pros:
    Cons:
    The plate works great. Installation went well, although I wished they included shorter bolts (too) as they really stick out on a Tohatsu 30hp. It brings the idle speed down from 2.8mph to 0.8mph on an MFS30 with 14 pitch prop. By tilting up a little bit, and increasing idle a little, the boat is very stable from 1 to 1.5mph. However, anything above that is super wasteful in gas/noise and creates a ton of turbulence. I have seen other review mentionning adding another notch - I will be doing that, would make a lot of sense for the plate to come with this additional notch especially for the small engine one.
