Looking for a good deal on a set of Bravo 1, 4 blade, 25 Pitch props (left and right). New or like new condition.
I currently run 3 blade Mirage Plus 25P and im tired of the blowout and slip. Probably keep them for when we want speed only but the sacrifice of 5-7 top speed is no big deal for all the "good" in exchange.

I have tried a 27 Hydromotive, but it had no top end at all and the engines couldnt turn them.
My 25 Mirage Plus 3 blades suck ASS! Twin 6.2's with 1.65 gears on my 28 Donzi 28 ZXO, and I have had them cupped to the max, but still blow out and dont create lift.

Bravo 1 26" pitch is really about 25. You can "rent" a set from one of the online prop vendors at a reasonable price. I have the 26" pitch with twin 6.2s (Bravo 1 - 1.65) in my 29' Fountain. They work great.

****! Thats too much torque and not what I am looking for.... brrr maybe I need a 24 with cup like a major league catcher! Or a 26 but thats too much reduction in RPM.......

You gain about 200rpms for every 1" reduction in pitch, but you lose about 200rpms for adding the 4th blade.
