I tried the se3000 hydrofoil before I raised the outboard, it made no difference in trim and made the boat handle even worse. Im assuming this was because the se3000 was to far into the water and the curved corners made it bite in. I'm a real fan of the "fast tail" because it seems to be a natural progression from the outboard anti cav plate, just increases the surface area. I would highly recommend the fast tail after using both on a different amounts of boats. Super happy owner now.
