Any one use a prop like this - I got a 598ci - in a 1985 24' Superboat and was thinking of bidding on this propeller labbed 25 pitch 5 blade and double cupped.

That is an outboard prop.
I was told the High 5 does not have enough blade area to carry a heavy i/o boat.

Whats the diffrence, Mercury V6 ob props fit, bravo, alpha ect ?

I'm just relaying what BBlades told me.
"Not Enough Blade Area"

I talked to a few people - they said this will work on most V6 applications and outdrive Mercruiser, TRS and others which may need a hub chenge.

The high five is a small diameter prop in the 12 inch range . as compared to A Bravo one 15 inch range for same pitch.

You will be disapointed as there is not enough blade area to carry your weight boat IMO.

High fives are mostly for light weight outboard bass boat applications.

I just tried the p5X, the speeds were the same and 1 mph less at top end. Boat felt a little sluggish compared to the 4 blade.

Anyone need a 28 LH P5X before I return it?
