Hey Breeze, I had some of the same problems and I bought an SE300 SE Sport Hydro Foil. My boat now does not raise the bow as high, it planes out in less than half the distance and my gas mileage increased a bunch. I made a lone run which would normally take 9 gal of gas and now that same run takes just a little more than 6 gal. My boat only holds 12 gal of gas and I always have it full for that run and when I get back to the ramp I would have 1/4 of tank (3 gal) and now I have almost half a tank(almost 6 gal). I wished I had put the thing on my 150 Merc. a long time ago. At Bass Pro Shop they're $59.99. Good luck; Bob
