how did it ride with the 21 rev4?? mine loved it.. but couldn't find a 23 to try.. you may try that.. I ended up finding a 22b1 up pitched a to 23 that I found that worked good overall.. Got my cruise to 49-50 at 4k even with load where my 23 m+ would start slipping running 47-48. The 21rev 4 was also tapping rev at 5200 so you might be able to push the 23rev 4.. it really got my boat out the water just ran out of rpms.

The Revolution 4 have 5 degrees more rake and a slightly smaller diameter. These things aid in the bow lifting the Baja hulls crave. The Bravo 1 propeller will absolutely work but it really shines after it is adjusted to carry the bow better.

We have a test program that allows you to test without buying. Of course the Revolution 4 series props including the 23 are available to test with.
Let me know if this might interest you.

I was immediately impressed with the rev 4 out of the and was quite better . I had 4 people and 3/4 tank ran 63 WOT. Then buy myself I hit 64 and started tapping the rev limiter. Trying the bravo 1 22p just waiting for it to come in.

He will tell you, but have to kill you..lol

I believe the B1 is a good prop but really shine when labbed.. I guess he adds some rake and cup to lift and hold the bow up which allows the Baja to run more efficiently and thus faster.. sounding like a commercial now! Lol

Lol well it looks like I'm going to have to send it to him so he can work his magic. But I'm gonna test it out first hopefully I will have it by Friday.
