ABSTRACT:
A kit containing a plurality of hydrofoil assemblies which can be easily and quickly attached to a conventional boat hull thereby causing the boat to operate with the hull of the boat spaced above the surface of the water. There are three separate hydrofoil assemblies, with one being located at the stern of the boat in conjunction with the outboard motor. The other hydrofoil assemblies are located approximately amidship with one on the starboard side and the other on the port side. The midship hydrofoil assemblies are interconnected together through a flexible band which functions to securely attach these hydrofoil assemblies to the boat hull. Each of the hydrofoil assemblies are adjustable with respect to the hull of the boat. In a larger boat, there may be four (in number) or more of the hydrofoil assemblies attached to the boat hull.
