[QUOTE="gasper, post: 496058, member: 32017"] I know people use the term generally for any hydrofoil but just for clarity in figuring things out: the "Whale Tail" is a one piece aluminum hydrofoil made by Davis Instruments. What is shown in the photo looks like black plastic/composite hydrofoil of the type made by SE Sport or Sting Ray which seem to be widely used so should not cause undue stress. The 40 hp outboard may be more of an issue. I have a 25hp Suzuki 4 stroke on 14' LUND and it's really too heavy for the boat, causes bow rise, etc. that's where the hydrofoil helps. [/QUOTE]
