Default 700hp 24 Outlaw - prop?

Anyone out there running a 700hp motor in a 24 outlaw? If so, what are your experiences with props? I'm looking for a good starting point. Thanks.

good question -- we just took my buddies 24 with an 850 sc out yesterday for the first time with a 34 bravo 1 at 4900 rpm the boat was very bow heavy, along with an ample amount of torque steer.
We are thinking about trying some 29 mirage 3 blades to see if it will carry the bow better.

Hope someone with some expertise chimes in.

the 4 blades lift the boat out of the water to much look at my run i trim it to much at the end and it has no boat in the water . so i trim it at 55mph and leave the trim there then go full throttle

the29 will work better. remember the plus is not like the reg mirage the plus truns 200rpms less then the reg mirage the plus lifts the bow more to . i try both i like the reg mirage for my boat .you got to try them and see. i would prop your boat to 55oorpm . good luck

mirage handling is awful is my only concern. I'm just trying to get to my top end power. it could be a variety of little issues at this point. i've had a mach and a bravo on mine and the handling is completely different. i've never went over 70 with a mirage so I'm not 100%. i can see in your video the squirrel toward the end though

The handling with the Mirage+ should be better than the old Mirage. I find it settles the stern more. You could also look into the Revolution 4. The diameter is not that big, so prop torque should be minimal. I think the M+ and Rev4 are the best props for the 23-25OL and H2X.
