Nope just installed it last night. If you mean the boat then yes I've fished with it a shite ton since I got it.
I just installed a DIY anchor trolley for the port side with $13 parts from lowes. I need to find a stainless ring for it though.

Report back on how it does. I have looked a the kits for my yak, I could see where it is beneficial.
The trolley looks good. I don't know how you use it, or plan to use it, but I found out something useful about trolleys the other day. My Hobie trolley has 2 rings with a piece of bungee in the middle. I had no idea why, until the other day.
I was tied up in Caminada pass in pretty big seas. All I had was a short bow rope because someone stole my anchor while I was at the campground. But I figured out real quick that the bungee is there as a shock absorber. I had my forward ring all the way to the front of the boat and I was getting rocked. Once I pulled it towards me some and gave the bungee room to work, it was a night and day difference. I rode out the waves with no worries.
