Wow! it's like having a new boat.
Excellent addition to my boat. It is quite easy to install. On my old Mercury outboard, I had to remove the trim tab, slide the hydrofoil on, replace the trim tab and tighten down two screws on the side of the hydrofoil.The difference was noticeable almost instantly. The boat pops right out of the water when you accelerate. There is virtually no rise in the bow as you get up to speed. I've tried it both pulling a tube and without. In both situations the boat's performance was excellent.Three cautions:1. make sure that it is perfectly straight. It's easy to have it off just a bit. It took me a couple times of adjusting the set screws before I got it right.2. Watch the set screws on the side. They need to be really tight. I didn't tighten them enough at first and then had the problem of the foil being off center by the end of the outing.3. Since putting the foil on, the boat pulls to the right. My guess is that I need to adjust the trim, but because I don't have power trim, that's a hassle and I haven't done it yet. It's not enough of a problem make me tinker with it or change my mind about the product, but I do have to keep a hand solidly on the wheel (something you should do anyway).I can't speak to the fuel savings. I don't keep close enough track on my fuel to notice any change. But the product is well worth it even if there isn't any fuel savings. It's hands down the simplest (and most noticeable) improvement I've made to my boat.

Fell off after 5 minutes run
I had read some of the other comments about the hydrofoil falling off, so I cranked it down with only a couple of millimeters of set screw showing, I was afraid I would break the plastic, it wasn't enough, It fell off the motor w/ a 5 minute trial.... company offered 1/2 off for a new one to try again, + cost of shipping.... not sure want to do that again...
