Hydrofoil ?

First let me say I don't have a problem getting up on plane, but I do need to be at about 4000rpm / 28mph or there abouts. I'm interested in a hydrofoil as the hydrofoil manufacturers claim on plane at speeds down to 10mph and improved fuel economy - some with no reduction in top end speed.
In looking at many different ones, Cobra Marine seems to have one of the best. It can be had in aluminum or stainless (rather than plastic) and bolts from beneath the cavitation plate rather than the plastic ones that bolt on top.

Thoughts?

(Could be real nice to be up on plane at half throttle or less.)
