Bow Lift
 

ive been doing lots of search and i know i can have a prop worked to get more bow lift, but will a 5/6 blade have more natural lift in it over a 4 blade just due to the extra blades?

I thought 5/6 blade would give more stern lift …… but I’m no prop expert.

More blade surface area = more stern lift ...........and less bow lift.

so is more bow lift then, just less stern lift?

or is it something specific worked into a prop to create lift?
