skeeter boat cb hydrofoil
does anyone have a review of a chris bailey hydrofoil on skeeter
-
I’ve got one on an older ZX200. I added a bunch of rear weight - twin PP blades, hyd jack plate, etc.. Boat porpoised horribly then. Added a CB foil and that fixed my issue. Planes at lower speed. Stays on plane easier. I’ll do a CB foil on my future boats as well likely.

Put mine on tonight. I’ll get you some answers after this weekend

Well it works…
hole shot is easily twice, maybe three times as fast.
Before I would porpoise at anything less than 36-37 mph with full livewells and a passenger. I can now ride around 20 mph w no issues.
I did notice that the boat now wants the jack plate a little higher than it did. Not real sure why, but definitely the case.
I may have lost 2-3 mph top end but I dinged the prop last trip before I put it on so I can’t tell you for sure that the foil did that.

I have a 2018 TZX190 and it would porpoise terrible around 30 mph, no matter how I trimmed it.
Installed the CB Foil and now she is super smooth.
Good Luck,
Bozz
