    I know of some getting good all around results from a 33 Bravo1 FS. Not the best of any aspect but good results as an all around fishing prop.

    That is correct. I will run solo in the next few weeks when I can get my dad out there with another boat just in case.

    I had a 32 bravo fs before the max 5. It runs about 4 mph slower.

    A friend of mine is having good results with a Powertech BRV5. It's a 5 blade that has blades cloned from a Bravo. I think he said it cost around $700.
