    Anybody run Bravos on their Z21s?

    Have a 2018 z21 with 250 pro xs opti and buddy is sending me a 23.5 bravo xs and a 23 LT. Won't have them till Wednesday so while I wait I'm wondering if anyone else has experience with them on a z21?

    Way undersized you’d need at least a 25p

    They are free so if they work I can keep them and if they don't I send them back. But if they don't work I'll get a few more sent up to test out! I do agree they may be a bit low in pitch though.

    I have a 24 Bravo 1 I used on my 16. Awesome prop. I think your going to like it and find out it is not undersized at 23.5. My 24 on my 2019 Z21 250 4S, I see 68.5 mph and max rpm 5500. Would like to try a 23. I had half tank fuel, full tournament load, two guys, livewells full. Let us know.

    This prop was prescribed to me from a buddy that is part of the test team and design team for merc down on lake x. So I found it interesting about that size as well and I'm happy to hear the results that you have with the 24 bravo. I'll be keeping you guys posted!

    Vince. You get to test this yet? I’m guessing 72mph and right in your WOT RPM range.

    Opened her up on the bay today with a light chop. 23.5 bravo xs I believe this one is and I got 5860 for rpm and 64 with 3/4 tank, 2 adults and a very heavy load of gear and full livewells. I'm very happy with the performance as of now and I'm going to do some more runs tomorrow with a empty boat and less fuel. I also have 23 bravo I'm going to test out as well.

    What speed and rpm are you seeing with the Bravo 26P? I just purchased a 2016 Z21 and it came with a 24p fury.
