Just got a new 1/8 Elam hydro. I hear from a friend who has one that the skid fin isn't adequate. I put a 1667-2 prop on for a little lift, thinking that this may help a little. Who makes a GOOD turn fin for this boat (right side). Everything else is still stock. Thanks for any info!

Mike Hughes makes very good turn fins for all sizes of boats. You can contact him at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

I'm not sure that will help unless that hull is very different from the Budweiser hull. The CG is too far back and the engine can't be moved enough to fix the problem. The pipe is too long as well.
