Need Prop help

I have a 33 ft powerplay center console that had twin merc 225 optimax's with mirage plus 21 pitch props. I just put 300 opti's on and need to figure out what to put on for props. Anyone know of anyone who has done this? Thanks

Check out the new Bravo XS props, not sure what pitch though.

call powerplay they should know, if not you should be able to turn a 25 mirage or 24 bravo

I tried the Bravo 24 and I hit the red line. I spoke with mercury racing and he suggested the Bravo 1 fs 25 or the mirage 25. I think I may try the mirage 25 first.

I would think that 25 mirage and 24 bravo would run similar rpm, I have 27 mirages and 26 bravos and get similar speeds and rpms out of them. The bravos vibrate less and have better performance all around on my boat.
