Yes, I could of and have on a GT 52 I was testing. What I have found with these sidescan transducers is the lower the better as they need the both sides in clean water. I had issues with one side not getting clean water, or as clean a water as the low side at higher speeds. The 51 mounted dead center give the best results by far and I have good returns at 30+ knots on sidevu. On my next build I will mod the stringer and go to a through hull on the back end of the keel but where I have it now is great.
