Just curious if anyone has tried the Rev 4 23 pitch propeller on a 26 Outlaw (1.50 lower unit). If so how did you like it and what rpm's were you getting?

Thanks for the info guys! emilsr you are probably right about the shorty. My boat will not pull the 26 B1 with the gear change (4600 @ 62 mph) so I need something to get me through the summer. I tried a 23 Mirage + and am on the rev limiter. That and I didnt really like the three blade.

What you need to do is put your boat together then call Brett Anderson (Bblades). Get up off your checkbook and do it right; the right prop can make a HUGE difference.

Russel do you have a imco shortie 1'' or 2''?? or stock drive height. the rev should work either way cause your drive will still be about 5 1/2'' below the keel with a 2'' shortie. you guys running 4600 or 4700 should give it to brett should get you up to your max rpms and more speed even if its 2mph for what 350 for labbing its worth it other wish you are straining your motor at 4600.
