Mercury Revolution4 props
 
Tried them yesterday on the Glasstream and can't say enough good things about them. Really impressed!
Anyone else ever used them?

I'm glad they worked well!

We are trying to turn more people on to them. We have sold many sets this summer. Not every application calls for these, but some boats just love them.

They offer 4 blade performance without sacrificing too much top end!

I tried one on my Pantera 24 last year. I didn't have a GPS with me, but it felt like it lifted the ENTIRE boat further out of the water.

4mph over a bravo one tells me something!!! The boat actually had better bite and throttle response. It even came out of the hole better too...

I just put them on our 328 SCX Glasstream CC. The boat has twin Mercury 275 Verado outboards and a double ventilated stepped hull with an extremely high X-dimension (2 inches above drain plug). BBlades recommended them because he said that double stepped boats w/high X-dimensions have a hard time caring the bow and the props tend to run in "airy water". The best news of all I am not at the top of the power curve. I have a bout 300RPM to get so we are going to lab. Should see another 2-4MPH!!! If I get 6-8 MPH for two $1500 (2 Revolution 4, 2 Lab finish). That is un-heard of, and will be the best bang for buck I have seen in my 15 years of boating. I believe the Revolution 4 are pretty new to the Mercury line, but I could be wrong.

bb I took my 24ol out for one test run on my 26p B4 hit 5200rpm with it, it might have more but my steering is bad so I got alot of chine walk. we talked 2 months ago about the rev 25 do you think the 25 with lab to26or 27 would work better my carb was off to. I have 647hp 627 tq .

We prefer the Rev4 on Baja's. So do most of our customers. The Rev 4 is only available up to 25 pitch in both RH and LH rotation.

We should talk again. I have test Revolution 4's from 19 to 25 inches of pitch!
