Default Tempest Plus experience?

Anyone tested Mercury's Tempest Plus?
Interested to hear opinions on speed, lift or in comparison with for example Mirage Plus.

OB type propeller. Built for bass boats.

Great bow lift but not as much stern lift carrying ability as a Mirage Plus.

I love them in the right application. Great on the new Spectre sportfishing boats.

Sounds a lot like the 4 blade Offshore/Vensura ...?

Actually, quite a bit different. Of course less blades but also a different geometry completely.

The Ven-Sura is the old large hub Trophy.
