Default Do Hydrofoils Work???

I put a Cobra SS Edge hydrofoil on my Monterey 196/4.3L/190hp and am
satisfied with the change in performance. I have a lowered on-plane speed,
and am also able to raise the bow more when running in heavier waves to
prevent stuffing the bow into a wave. I lose a couple of mph at top end,
but don't miss them. If you get the SS version, don't bother with the black
one, since all the paint came off mine within a month. Here's the link to
the Cabelas one:

Do Hydrofoils work and Is there one better than another? I have a
Glastron SX 195 with a 5 liter 220hp motor and I would like to be able to

be
on plane at a slower speed. I usually have to be going about 15 or 20mph

to
get on plane.
Any Ideas???
