yes, came in a couple days. very easy hookup to. hardest part was figuring where to put it and make the hole

You can actually make one.  Same type switch as a Cannon downrigger.  Contacts up and down with spring loaded to center.  Three wires back to engine.  Connector is on port side. Only problem is connector is hard to find.  I soldered on pins that fit into female contacts securely and sealed it with silicone.  Been working for 9 seasons  on my F70LA with no problem.

How slow can you troll down to with the 70?

[lrg355]

I think it goes from 600 to 1000 rpm in 50 rpm increments.  This is on my Sea Nymph GLS175.  I have a Motor guide XI5 for autopilot.  I believe when I have the XI5 in use and set at about 40% power for steering it actually slows the boat down a bit.  It will go down to 1.5mph with Xi5 in use and maybe 1.8 without XI5.
