Yes! And love it!!! Search the threads and you'll find more pics/opinions of the install and thru-hull. The only time I lose bottom is if backing really hard or airborn

I'm pretty sure I am going with a 620 which I believe is a smaller version of the 585 and have only heard great reports on both. a friend of mine has a 585 with a 1000 watt ducer on a downeast and is a commercial tuna fisherman that's fishes mostly off of Chatham and he has been impressed with the machine.

I'm going with a 600 watt tilted through hull element that is supposed to help with the deadrise of the Seacraft. I only cruise at 20-23Knots so I doubt it will matter for me at speed.
