Claims at least a 30% fuel reduction
Anyone any views on what it will do to top speed. Presumably it chanels the thrust so improves low speed directional control when using outboard for steering with no rudders.

PowerThruster and 39% fuel reduction
Has anyone used one of the PowerThruster attachments for the outboard ? I have searched the discussion boards but can not find much info. For sale on macgregorowners website (I would post a web link and picture but can not as i don't have enough posts).

Try a search on 'powerthruster'. It's been discussed several times before - maybe you'll find your answer already here!
Here's one, for example:
