Has anyone evey put a hydrofoil/ doel-fin/ stabilizer fin on a Mercury 6 hp? If so, how did it work out?

Re: 2008 Mercury 6 hp four stroke foil

foils on small motors do not do much. they will push the nose down and get you up on plane if you are light enough. The motor must be set at the right depth first because the drag they create will eat up the few horses that you have. They do seem to make the prop push better at the bottom range of rpm.
