to get a base line I would try a 26p Bravo four bladé and try a 25p Mirage +, then tell BBlades what your results are and start the tuning program with him to get what works best for you. This is based on a Bravo outdrive w 1.5 ratio

From the response on this thread , there must not be many boats with this set up. The boat now has a 26 Bravo 1, Don't know any more specifics. Just was wondering what others have had success with..

I have a buddy in the process of buying one and thought Id just throw it out there to see what others are having the best success with. I agree this probably is a rare set up. It is a factory optioned boat with hydraulic steering and K planes. Probably won't have any performance information until next spring as our season is over. Anybody else have one with this set up?

My 25' Nordic Rage has a 500 EFI with a 28P Bravo 1 labbed by Bblades for mid range and I see 79 GPS all day long at 4950 RPM. If I drop the 4 optima batteries, wife, and both subwoofers the boat has seen 84 GPS. I had a 25 Baja before the Nordic and I would bet you see mid 80's out of yours with that power.

I have an '04 25 OL with a Raylar HP600 in it. I typically run a 28P B1 stock (which I hate) but it is the only prop I own for it. I've tried a 26P merc labbed B1 which was perfect for the boat, I could spin it up to 5500-5600 RPM. I'd guess the best FOR MINE would be the 28P, labbed but turned down to 27P, and run it in the 5300-5500 RPM range. So with the 525 I'd say the 26P would be perfect. I've also tried the Hydromative props and didn't like them at all.

That's great to know. The prop that is on it looks to be a labbed 26 Bravo 1. Once spring comes we will have some numbers to work off of. His is also a "04 25 Outlaw but does not have the SST graphics.

Prop that 525 to bump the rev limiter in ideal conditions. 5,200 - 5,400 rpm is where the power is. My boat is a 22 Donzi 525 with a 30p Bravo 1. If your drive is deep and a 3 blade hooks up the M+ might be faster.
