Bravo 1,50 to 1,36 Prop ?
 
Going from drive with 1,50 - Bravo 24P prop to Bravo drive 1,36 how big Bravo prop do i need? Got a 26, can I use it? It`s a single Rib boat,broke the 1,50 drive. (HP 500 EFI)

1.5
 
keep you 1.5 gear unless you run out of prop. you will make a mistake

mike tkach 05-20-2012 07:54 PM

if you are running a 24p with the 1.5 ratio,you will need less pitch with a 1.36,probibally a 21p,or a 20.

Anyone better????????

Shag555 05-21-2012 11:29 AM

Yeah, if your gears Are still good shape, why dont you pull the 1.36's and replace with the 1.50's? Would eliminate any guesswork...

You are right,to clear up a litle here I`m going to use a HP 500 EFI with 1,36 drive and I`m not sure what prop to begin with,the boat is a light Rib 28` boat,thanks.

stay with the 1.50,1.36 and lower pitch prop you will hate,mercury and others have tried all these combos thats why you have 1.50

Griff 05-22-2012 01:16 AM

A 1.50 to a 1.36 will need about 3" less pitch prop. By going to a 1.36, you will have much harder time finding the correct style of porps in a small enough pitch.

502 Magnum 05-22-2012 03:00 AM

Yes you are so right,I give up the 1,36 plan,thanks.

Just another shout out to stay with the 1.50:1 ratio.
Test you 24 if this is new power and you can decide where to go from there.
