Default Tempest Plus Props

Anybody compare Mercury Tempest Plus props to Mirage Plus props? I’m looking for any feed back to see if there worth trying.

The tempest is not much of a stern lifting prop so it will really make the boat feel planted. The mirage lifts both the bow and stern so it feels much looser. Really depends on what your hull naturally want to do. Had both on two different boats with vastly different results.

ACrooks69 is right on.
The M+ has more blade area and carries the transom a little higher. The T+ is a bass boat propeller by design but does work well on cnt. console applications. The T+ has a bunch of bow lifting personality.
