Lifter's Planing System
 
Wondering if anyone has experience with Lifter's Planing System from
Maximarine.

I am looking to boost the performance of my Achilles 9' inflatable
(inflatable floor).

Thanks,
Don

Consider one of the cavitation plate fin systems (like a Doel Fin, for the
motor) in lieu of this. Two reasons: 1) much cheaper, 2) almost as
effective, and 3) your inflatable has an air floor, implying that you may
want to roll it up and stow it on deck for cruising. The transom planes
will prevent rolling the boat up around the transom, not to mention being
vulnerable to being damaged from moving the dinghy around when out of the
water.

Looking at www.maximarine.com it appears the Lifters Planing System is
detachable.
