32 Fountain Fever with a touch of Gellner/ 202 Chris Stinger
Question for prop experts. ???

Recently upped my power in the 202 stinger from the 6 banger to a mpi 350. I had asked what prop I would need to run on it with the stock alpha drive 1.92 gears,ext. I was told to run 32p bravo prop.
My new question is what is the differences between a bravo 4 blade prop and a hydro motive 4 blade. I used one of the 28 p 4 blade hydro off the fountain just untill I get more money to buy the recomended bravo. what prop will get me the most bow lift, it runs out of trim super quick and cavitates really easy. Should I now look into a surfice type prop, or look for a spacer to get the drive down deeper in the water. With the hydro on the boat I have managed to get 63mph gps on it, but hits the stutter box with ease. So if anybody could give me a lil help it would be great. I would hate to buy a new bravo, it still not run right.

Thanks John

Hi,

Unique g.r. need taller pitch sizes.

Going to the Bravo series propeller will help with the bow down situation. Going up in pitch seems to be the right move too since your on the rev limiter. Spacing is always a option, but propeller testing should be looked at first

Try a 30 or 32 B1 propeller before spacing the drive down. This will answer many questions and give you ideas which way to head next.
