    2011 Z8 with 54" 36v Xi5 - I fish a lot off shore so keeping the prop in the water during rough conditions was the goal - and I really like it. Also makes it a little easier to stow if you don't have it maxed out on depth. If you fish shallow however it does stick up a little rigged for bank fishing conditions.

    Good luck.

    I have an x3 but use a 54”. Had a shorter one on the boat when I bought it and it spent more time out of the water than in when the wind picks up on Oneida. If I wanna go shallower than 2’ I’ll just manually raise it
