I am a fan of 4-blade props on my boat, but I'm running a Bravo 1 26 that has been worked ANd pushing a ton of power.

I think I'd try a 23 pitch Mirage Plus (3-blade) and see how she works that way.

I'm keeping eyes out locally for something to try. Right now I'm happy with it the the way it is.

my boat came with a 21 mirage plus and the 850 hour 330hp turns it just shy of 4800 rpm. i tried a 23 m+ and would only spin it to 4300, not surprisingly. i forget what you're running for power, but there's that for reference.

I'm running about 420-425. I'm going to keep my eyes out for a 22 1 bravo 1 4 blade or a 23 mirage plus locally to borrow. I have plenty of 3 blades to play with but pretty sure they won't be worth the time.

yeah i'd bet a 23 mirage plus would be close. i'm pretty sure the Bravo 1 4-blades are even number pitch, and i'd think a 22 would be what you'd need? i'm looking to try a 22p B1 this summer on mine.

I edited it. I meant 22 these tiny keyboards in phones kind of suck.
