    Raker 3 blade to Bravo 4

    Anyone have experience going from Raker to Bravo? I'm running a 26p Raker now and tried a 26 bravo xs this weekend and it jumped RPMs too high (6300). I can't imagine needing a 28 but after some reading it appears could be the deal. I'm running a Lynx with a 250 G2 and no poles.

    The Raker turns right at 6k and will run a med load to 76.5 mph with good holeshot as well. The bravo 26 was awesome lift, but just too many RPMs at 6300 and around 72 mph when I lifted outof it. I ran the motor low (2.1" on the guage) with both props.

    Bravos are weak on pitch. You could have it worked to a 27, but a 28" Bravo is probably about right. You will gain more RPM's in cooler weather.
