My 1989 Cig Bullet
notched transom
Bravo drive 1.5 ratio new style

new power will be Hp500 and hope to Dyno at 550

I currently run 23p mirage and 24 pitch Bravo1 when on big water

Recomendations from the prop Gurus and do you take props in trade?

Same boat...Same year.....650hp....
I run 28s in the rough stuff & 30s for cruise...Non-labbed box stock.
My 28s will stuff the rev limiters when she is trimmed up...Bet you could turn them....

I just put a pair of dyno'd 500s in my 1988 Bullet-
Fresh TRSs-
Been running 23 mirages-
Tried a pair of stock 4 blade Bravo 25s got about 3.5 mph more (gps).
23s turn around 5000-
How hard are you guys turning yours?
On a differant note -
Do you guys get any stern lift in your boat when running wide open?
It seems to me that my boat could use a little lift on the bow above 65mph.

It is hard to get the nose loose without some chop.....
I turn the 30s about 5200.....Low humidity & chop.............
Bravo boat though.............

Birdog
are those Merc Bravo 1 props (4 blade)?

Have an 88 Bullet, with almost 500HP/502s. Had a pair of Stilletto 25 which came on the boat. Top about 65/67 at 5000. Bought a pr of Bravo 1 24s, was hoping for a bit more speed at cruise, and would take anything more at top. Turns out I am very close at cruise or maybe a tad less, and top about the same as before. I do notice they bite harder and boat comes up quicker, but was great before. And more mid range punch when I drop the throttles. Am planning on getting one set or the other reworked to see if I can pick up some cruise speed. Hope this helps somewhat.

Yep.....They sure are.

Gary,
I'm spinning 26P Bravo1's at about 5500. My best guess is that 550 HP would turn the 26 B1 @ 5200.
