Josh, I would sure try the 26 Bravo, that would put you about 6100 rpms and pick up a couple mph.

I would love to try a bravo prop on my Lynx. Does anyone know someone that has a 25 or 26p in stock?

Guys im a firm believer in props. I have a Ranger z521 and running both Tempest Plus worked 25 and Bravo 1 xs 26 worked. 76mph Tempest and 75mph Bravo. Im not a fury believer
I just picked up a 26 Bravo 1 XS. It will be here Tuesday. I also picked up a 24 tempest. I’ll be testing them out this week.
Definitely let us know how the 26 Bravo 1 XS does and if any of the PVS holes are plugged. I ran a 24 Tempest yesterday, but I'm in the middle of swapping graphs so I didn't have an accurate speed number. The Tempest definitely had a better holeshot and midrange over the Fury 3, but it maxed out at 5800-ish RPM's. I should have my new console unit installed this week so I'll have true speed numbers soon. As far as the handling and performance so far I prefer the 25 Bravo 1 XS (no plugs) over the Tempest (no plugs). Although the Tempest has a better holeshot it doesn't handle as easy as the Bravo IMO.
Just got back my re-worked 24 Bravo 1 FS from Ronnie Gilbert. Will run it next week and see what she spins out

Some really good info here guys. The 26 Bravo should be in tomorrow. I’ll get some numbers as soon as I can.
What are you guys running your jack plate at WOT?
We would say most Lynx models are from flush to 2 on the hydraulic plates.
I'm running a Bravo FS 27 (Holeshot is fantastic and nearly blows out. Midrange will push you into the seat.) and have a 26 on order (This is probably going to blow out). Have actually ran a 28 which worked very well by myself but is to much prop with a co-angler. The Bravo seems to grip better and lets me run my jackplate much higher. Run mine 4-5 all the time. Running the Raker HO 26 that came on it I know how it tends to hunt at low speed and the need to keep the plate low. Only thing I can attribute it to is the Bravo 4 blade.
I will probably end up sending the 27 off to get tweeked a bit.
Keep in mind I'm running a 300 G2.
