Yep, I had one on my Baja Twilight Cruiser! It worked excellent. Sold it when I bought the 272. Kinda wish I had kept it, now. The T/C was a 300 HP 454. And the Verado is alittle over 300, would be fun to tweak and try. I was told not to run it on the 525 hp Baja that replaced the T/C. The engine torque would destroy it. Don't know, should have tried it at least once! If you hear of another for sale, let me know! May be a hell of a combination with the jack plate!

Thanks for looking! I checked it out, if it was Left Hand rotation, it would be mine! Thats my only complaint on my boat. LH rotation motor. Hard to buy props for, but the hole shot is flat and straight. I'll do some checking to see if I can find a LH.
