Default 95 fever prop?

Here it goes fellas>>> new to the site. new to fountain. Finally bought a 27 fever with a 525 sc. was wondering if anyone has spent the cash to try different props to find out what works best? I think the stock prop is cavitating? The paint near the water pick up on the outdrive looks like it was sandblasted? Any help would b a big awesome.

It probably came with a Mach prop and they were pretty good. Bravo 1 is good all around. Hydromotive should give you a slightly better top end less cruise. Reggie switched to bravo from hydro when he got hooked up with merc for motors. Call bblades.

for what it's worth. Mine will cavatate more when i turn sharp right vs sharp left. This is only when turning around to go pick up a skier. Must have something to do with direction of the prop rotation.

Hydromotive seemed to cavate more than the Bravo on my pile for sure.
