mittens

I am going to try a few different ones, I do not want to be too slow out of the whole, but to run mid 60's and still cruse nice, and get on plan nice is what i am looking for.

OK, 63.4 GPS is the best so far with the Bravo 22P 4 blade. i Have a spare 3 blade for a bravo one, but it is onlt a 20P. so I would like to try a Mirage 23P 3 blade before buying one. does this sound about right on the speed with that prop?

What rpm was it running?

4700-5000 I can stay around that speed just depends on trim, the gauge is reading just under 1/2 at 4700 and at 1/2 to get 5000 rpm

do any of you still have your 252? i have a 1996 model. i would like to know some more about

sounds like the perfect candidate for a revolution 4. I went from a mirage plus 21p to a rev4 21p in a 25' 454mag. hole shot and throttle response is amazing. Also pickup up 2 mph. runs about 4900 rpm. I don't have any numbers to prove it, but some guys say you can expect a HUGE increase in fuel mileage with a rev 4.

edit: just noticed this is an OLD thread...

Yes this is my old boat.

I had both a mirage 23P-3B, and a Barvo 22P-4B

the 22P-4B had a better hole shot, beter cruse speed, but a WOT of about 60-61mph

the 23P-3B still got on plane fine, 3 mph slower cruse, but 63-65(if lucky 65) mph WOT

I ran a 23p blade hydomotive with great success. i also had a 24p Bravo labbed finished that was the best overall prop. Great hole shot and worked very well when the kids wated to be pulled on the tub.

yep i ran my bravo 22P-4B 99% of the time.
