First time out with the prop and as I was coming off plane I felt a bad vibration. I lost a blade. I don't believe I hit anything. Is this what it looks like when it slings a blade? Ive never had it happen before. How is the warranty process? Anything I did wrong to have caused this?
I hope your dealer warranties the prop... This is common, w/o hitting anything.

Mercury warranties the prop for one year from date of purchase nothing you did the fury fours are slinging blades
Is it the fury in general or just the 4 blade version?Originally Posted by 21XDC
I think that when you make blades thinner, They fail more often, Even with "Special metal" AKA Alloy 7

I have not read anything about 3 blades breaking. The Fury 4 will sling a blade when running to high on prop to pad height. I have read about 3 new Fury 4 failures on the same boat. They are not made to run high like Bravo1XS I have been told.
The Fury 4's will sling a blade even when they are run well below the surface - I run at least 3" below pad on my ranger and slung one.
Ive been thru way too many of these fury 4’s mercury should be ashamed of themselves too bad the 4 blade runs better than the three blade on my jag.
You might want to try a Rev4 with added PVS holes.
