The Enertia is about the same price as the Mirage (shop around). The Enertia could be made thinner because they used a different SS alloy which is much stronger then the old mirage was (making the enertia the stronger prop of the two) . I have been told that at some point in the future Mercury will us this same alloy for all their props.
Bet they crack!

I am talking about used props, Mirages can be had for between $100 and $200.
The material may be stronger, but since it is thinner it is the same strength
I have been told that B.P. will stop the oil spill also

According to B.P. Drilling for oil was safe
Hope ya know I am just fuggin' with yer head, I agree, the Enertia may be a better prop for a different style boat, and may work fine on his, but I do not see too many used Enertia's, and Mirage is a proven prop on the 24x7

Thanks for the info guys... I went with a 21p 4blade revolution...It comes out of the hole very quick but at WOT im only getting 4500RPM. Does this sound right to you? Keep in mind the engine is pretty old but still sounds and runs very good.
