I use a Mirage Plus 23 Pitch 3 Blade Prop. My rig is a 2003 25 Outlaw with a 496HO. I had to have Darin at Houston Propeller lab it and turn it up to a 24 pitch because I was hitting the rev limiter. So I would say Mirage 23 Pitch just like the one I have. I would recomend sending it to Darin at Houston Propeller for labbing. You can phone him at 281-580-prop.

Here are a couple currently on ebaY.

Not to highjack, but if you are interested I have a 24 pitch bravo prop in perfect shape... $250 plus shipping and it's yours...... I'm not sure if the 25 outlaw prefers a 3 blade or a 4-blade, but somebody should be able to tell ya.... e-mail me at [email protected] if your interested.....

i didn't know there was such thing as a 24 pitch, thought it went from 23 to a 25?

I tried a 25 pitch and it was to much for my 496HO. I'd borrow one from someone before buying and give a try.

mirages (3 blades) are odd pitches I.E. 23, 25, Bravo 1's (4 blades) are even I.E. 22, 24, 26 each has a pro and a con,, for a 25 o.l. and the best overall holeshot and handling I would say a labbed 24 bravo 1, for best top speed, labbed 25 mirage.

A 23P Mirage or 22P Bravo 1 will be your best bets.

I'll check tonight but I'm pretty sure I have a Mach sterndriver 22" 4 blade that is in like new condition (only used a couple of times for testing). I know it would work very well on that boat. My old Outlaw ran the best with a 26" mach. This prop gives plenty of lift and holds the water very very well.

I"ll let it go for $200.00 plus freight.

Let me know at [email protected]

A labbed 25 M+ is too much prop, IMO.
I had a 25 Outlaw with a 502/415 and a labbed 23 M+ and it was just about right.
So I would think that the 23+ could be turned down just a touch to allow for the 385hp and be close.
