FASTER, more bow lift, etc etc.

We have a test program so you can try a new one for $55.
It sells itself.
If it doesn't do what you want, no foul. Send it back and you spent $55 and shipping to make the determination by the seat of your pants and the thoughts in your noggin.

Thanks I'll look into that. How will the Bblades OB/F compare in terms of pitch though? if I use a Bravo One for reference in tems of what pitch to use, will I have to use the same pitch on the Bblades OB/F as for the Bravo One or will the OB/F be easier to turn so that i could go up a inch or two in pitch? Also, what will the typical slip % be on the OB/F on a light hull?

All the Bravo 1 props are about 1 inch of pitch less than they are stamped.
BBLADES recipe on the OB/F adds 100-200 more rpm on top of the stock Bravo 1 casting.
Slip should be well managed. Each application and identicle applications vary. So, it is impossible to quote a percentage specifically.

Thank you and I hope we can help you.
