What ever you do, do not install those. They are ment to be mounted to the side of the hull. Not at any angle. just bolted to the side. They are dangerous.

I didn't expect that reply either. I've seen the racers use them on their boats...so use at your own risk?

Those kind have not been approved for racing since the 80's if they were ever race legal.

I thought they were same as these, but I could be wrong. Never looked that close at them.

That kind bolts to the inside of the side rails and they are approx 3/8" thick. The Jazz fins bolt to side of the hull and stick out sideways. And are only 1/8" thick. Think knife edge.
