I have one on my 16 ft bass boat with a 150 merc. I can get on plane quicker and maintain plane at a much lower speed. My buddy had one on a 16 ft tracker with a 25 merc. It really didn't make much difference on his. If you are slow on getting on plane, it may help. I also don't slide as much in a turn as I use to.
