    Suggested Prop Companies that offer Demo Exchange?

    I'm interested in trying out some different Mercury props to improve performance. Currently have a Tempest Plus 26P on my TR196 Triton with 200 Optimax. Several have suggested I try a 25P Tempest Plus, but I'd really like to try one without having to purchase until I have confirmed it works for my rig. Any suggestions that offer a decent demo, try, and return program that won't cost an arm and a leg?

    I have the exact same boat. When I ran a 26 tempest it just didnt get the rpm's up where they needed to be. I switched to a 25 and it ran 2 mph faster because of the added rpms. With a 25 tempest it will run 70=71mph and the holeshot is pretty good. The best all around prop is a 25 trophy done by mark, 67-68 mph and a great holeshot, carries the boat very well, the 25 tempest was also reworked by mark, tempest's out of the box aren't as good as they can be...hope this helps
