I need a new prop after hitting a rock with my 20 outlaw, the broken one is a vengeance 23P which is ok for top speed but not much else. Or what bothers me the most is the hole shot which is almost impossible with a litte weight. I'm ready to give up some top speed in order to improve the hole shot, so i thought the Tempest 22P could work for me. I also thought about the Bravo I 22P, but would it be too much prop for this boat? Engine is 5.0 MPI 260 hp. It would be nice to pick up some cruise speed. Has anyone tried a 4 blade prop in this boat?

I have a 2005 202 Islander, same hull a little heavier and also have the 23P Vengance, it's slow out of the hole but the top end's nice, seen 60-61 on GPS.

I now run a Turbo 2+2 22P that I bought used from a fellow Baja owner. It's much better out of the hole and cruises at a high speed per RPM, so more efficient. I can squeeze 58 out of it on GPS. I was amazed at how differently the boat reacted (ride wise) by swapping to the 4-blade, it's hard to describe because I've not had the 3-blade on in over 4-years.

I'd say go for it, you will not regret it!

I'd do the 22P Bravo 1. Had one on my 23 Islander and it was perfect.

I've also heard the 21P Mirage+ worked will on the 20'OL/202 Islander.

The Laser II 23P was regarded as the best top-speed prop but crawled out of the hole.
