When I called Merc Racing before I bought my Bravo I Labbed props they told me 3 blade Mirage props wouild actually be faster but I would lose in other areas like midrange punch, getting up on plane and "Holding" power.

You can lab Mirages to take care of that for the most part. I would be interested to see how the Hydromotives work for you as I'm not going to try them first...

I'd love to hear how they perform because we have the same setup. I just know the bravos didn't work very well and the mirage 27's I have now slip on take off more than I care for but I had them improve them alot when labbed.

That may be my old boat.
Where did you buy it? Can you post a pic? Mine was a '98 with 500 EFI's. What color? Does it have 4 bolsters?
Just curious to see who bought it.

THE HYDRO'S WILL WORK ON THE 98 VERY WELL WHAT DO YOU HAVE NOW ? 26 BRAVO THEN YOU WOULD NEED A 25 HYDRO BUT WITH THE HYDRO YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY TO SPIN THEM IN GOOD LUCK BRIAN.....
