How to choose your foil?
When looking for your first foil, a taller mast is a good starting point. This gives you good height and keeps you from breaching the water. You will also want to look for a foil that doesn’t require loads of speed to get lift; allowing you to start foiling at a slower speed until you’re more confident. This helps to increase acceleration, giving you more power and reduced strain on the engine. The faster you go the more lift the hydrofoil gives. A correctly fitted foil has numerous benefits like the ability to plane at lower speeds and increased trim control, which is especially important as sea conditions change.
