Wondering whether to put one of these on my "Wish List" or not?! Anyone use these, or have experience with them. Of the couple of reviews on the West Marine website, they weren't good. But I wasn't sure if they just used them on the wrong boat, engine, improperly, etc.
I'd like to hear if anyone has tried them. What I'd really like it for is watersports. It seems the ideal speed for wakeboarding is right at the point of planing. So one second you're going perfectly. Then all of a sudden, the boat planes and you start to fly (the water begins to look like concrete!). Then next thing you know, you're wallowing so slow, ready to fall. If I could get the planing speed down, with no other disadvantages, that would be ideal.
