Nope but the father has one. Did some research for him and it's true. Evinrude doesn't dare compare its motors to the Optimax. All those cool videos they have of those E-tecs pulling boats with other outboards backwards is great... but the one thing they don't show you is e-tec vs the optimax. The optimax deffinately has more balls. If you don't want to believe me ask the owner of wooldridge boats.
