this is the best prop we had on our 30 Spectre with 300 pro max ( not X's), we lost one right before we sold the boat so you will have to have it matched. This prop will not tear the lowers and gave us the same MPH that we saw with the 3 blade prop we tried... This is a custom prop made by Mr. Cavenouff (sp?) of Mercury may he rest in peace...

ran em on a 328 skater with 2.5's, much of the addendums (ears) off the standard 4 blade was removed by bblades
