• 4 × Sets of Stainless Steel Screws and Nuts
• 1 × 6.5mm Drill Bit
• 1 × Installation Instructions

Installation Guide

1. Ensure the engine is off and the boat is securely trailered or docked.
2. Position the hydrofoil onto the cavitation plate of the lower unit. Center it side-to-side and place it as far back as possible without interfering with the propeller.
3. Use a pencil or marker to mark the drilling locations on the cavitation plate through the mounting holes of the hydrofoil.
4. Remove the hydrofoil and carefully drill the four marked holes using the included 6.5mm drill bit.
5. Place the hydrofoil back onto the cavitation plate, aligning it with the newly drilled holes.
6. Insert the stainless steel screws from the top and secure them from the bottom with the provided nuts.
7. Tighten all nuts securely. It is recommended to check and re-tighten the hardware after the first few hours of use.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I know if this hydrofoil will fit my motor?
A: This hydrofoil features a universal design for most outboard and stern drive motors from 40 to 350 HP. The critical factor is ensuring it can be mounted securely to your engine's cavitation plate. Please review the dimensions and compatibility table before purchasing.

Q: Do I have to drill holes in my engine's cavitation plate?
A: Yes, a bolt-on installation is required to ensure a secure fit for safe and effective performance. This involves drilling four holes in the cavitation plate. The kit includes all necessary mounting hardware and a drill bit to complete the job.

Q: What performance benefits can I realistically expect?
A: A properly installed hydrofoil helps your boat get on plane faster and stay on plane at lower speeds. This reduces bow rise, porpoising, and cavitation, often leading to improved handling, stability, and fuel economy.

Q: The compatibility notes for my Volvo Penta drive mention I need different hardware. Is it included?
A: For certain Volvo Penta models (including SX-A, DPS, DPR series), you will need longer bolts and 1" fender washers for a proper fit. Please be aware that this specific hardware is not included in the standard package.
