    What kind of numbers

    What numbers should I be seeing with a stock SS 4 blade prop, 3.5 PTP, 96 Yamaha Pro V?

    62-65 a lot depends on the motors a brand new sho you would probably see 65-68 they all lose hp over their lifetime. Props can range from low60 to high 60 that also depends on prop condition and if it is right for the boat.

    Does the 4 blade prop typically lose quite a bit of speed(4-5 mph) compared to the three blade?

    Normally 2-4 mph now we have ran a few like the rev 4 and gained 1 mph over a 3 blade it all depends on boat motor and load and about 100 other things.Try amd try and try again is about the best advice
