Default Bravo props for Baja?

I just heard from some one that you can order a labbed finished Bravo 1 prop, as a cup finish for Baja's. Is this true, if so where can i get one?

I just got one from BBlades labbed. Made a HUGE difference. I come up on plane 400 RPM sooner and spend less time sort of cavitating. Acceleration is better and I have 400 more RPMS at the top end.

IIRC it was around $300 for the labor (also bought the prop from them). Hardest part is ordering the prop. Took me almost 2 weeks of calling to order it (you need to talk to Bret there). Then they had it to me in just over a week...

I am all ears on this one. I need to add a Baja cup to my 22P B-1's or get cupped 24P B-1's. I definitely need to hold the bow up a little better. I'm wondering if the cup will drop the RPM's a little (22P B-1's on the rev limiter now), or I'll have to have the RPM's tweeked up a little on the 24P's.

my buddy did a bblades on his 25 outlaw and it did very little, he tryed my 22 b1 and it was pretty good, but he seemed to have the best all around with a stock marage 23p seemed to handle good, ride right and best top speed.

my bbladed b1 24p gained nothing over my 22 b1 stock. it did seem to give my boat a touch more bow lift and it stopped me from hitting my rev limiter (by to much, im spinning 4600-4700 rpm)
this said i think this winter im going to send my computer out and have them bump the limiter up a couple hundred rpm and run the boat there with my 22. we'll see.

if your boat runs the proper rpm pretty sure anything you do to the prop isnt going to make much difference, atleast from my experiance and the 3-4 guys that messed with props feel the same way

The prop Brett did for me made a huge difference. Out of the hole quicker, not on rev limiter anymore, and better top end. If your rpms are to low send it to him and he can tweak it to where you want.
