From experience, they make a big difference. Old boat would porpoise without it. Little whaler is WAY out of the water with it.......Hull is only 300lb, that may make a difference, not sure

I had a 17' bass boat with a 135 that would fly. I had to have one so when i was running top end i could control it as far as picking the boat up i didn't notice a difference. but i wasn't paying attention. I will say it made a big difference in hole shot and stability while running
