I would start with some Bravo1 26 pitch. With 525 HP, you should be able to turn them close to 5000.

Probably not unless you have Bblades work on them. Call Brett at Bblades and he can tell you if it will work for your application. I had 28 Labbed on my Bullet with 575 a side but they needed to be labbed.

I spin 27 pitch Mirage 3 blade about 5100. Engines not dynoed, but should be about 525 to 550.

4-blade Bravo1's will give you a much better ride. I had 27P mirage props on my boat and went to the 4-blades. Was real happy with the results. I can't remember exactly (was a long time ago) but I want to say that I picked up 3-4 mph at cruise rpm's.

I think the 28's will be too big. Your like me and kind of stuck in the middle of 26's and 28's. I was going buy some labbed 28's but b blades didn't think I get over 4900. Over all the the 26's are the right props for me, the boat jumps up on plane, carries the nose nice and pulls pretty good all the way up to 5200.
