trophy plus 24 5780rpm 64.9
trophy (not a plus)23 6190 rpm 66.mph.



which direction should I go. And which bravo should I try. Model and pitch. I’ve only ever seen one bravo in my life so don’t know much about them.

[21XDC]

I would try a 23P FS/XS because I bet your boat likes the extra cup and bow lift.

[44k1500fom]

Ok so bravos follow the same rpms per pitch??? Compared to a fury.

[21XDC]

No... The fury is a stiffer... What top end rpms are you wanting achieve?

[PMantle]

1 up from Tempest. 2 up from Fury.

[44k1500fom]

Ok thanks bravo is one up from tempest

Max rpm trying to be around 5900

[21XDC]

I still think the 23P would be best... See if you can find one to test before you buy.

[44k1500fom]

Of course. Props are expensive. Bravos seem to be around but in really big pitches

[44k1500fom]

I see a lot of bravo one. Any of those one version be good.

I do not know how Tritons compare to BassCats, but there's some good experience type posts on the Basscat board. Same engine as yours on an Eyra:

I’ve been running a 26p and 27p Bravo 1 XS for at least three years on my 17 Eyra, Mercury 2 stroke. I normally run the 26p in the summer but haven’t switched since I installed lithium’s for my trolling motor about a year ago.

On a Cougar:

Generally bravo’s run about 1 1/2 to 2 sizes smaller than a Fury. So a 27 bravo should work. Trophy runs pretty close to fury,25 should work.

Lynx:

I was able to pick up a 26p Bravo XS for my Lynx (250ProXS 4s). 4 holes plugged and was able to hit 73.5, but my rpms were only at 5815. I don't remember exactly where I had my jackplate, but it was between 1-3. I was running a 24p Fury 3 before. Holeshot on the Bravo was maybe a touch better.

Puma:

I ran a 26 Bravo1 XS on my 2013 Puma FTD / 250 ProXS and was on the limiter at 2000 feet elevation. The 23/24 Bravo is going to be all over the limiter.

I would go to the Triton board and search "Bravo". I am betting you'll find people with similar set ups that have run one.

I will have a 24P original for sale after this weekend.

[44k1500fom]

You got a bravo 24 for sale soon.

[PMantle]

Yes, I am getting an FS delivered today. I will remove the original(48-8311912) and get pics posted this evening, I hope.

If you can private message me or 8043875016 text or call me. I have a buddy that might be really interested. Or me. I just don’t want to be forking out money on props before I try this trophy.

just be nice to me in the price hahah

[Jtreed99]

25XS will be perfect. It will spin almost even to the 23 fury you ran but better all around on that boat.

[44k1500fom]

Are you saying the 25xs will be a better all around prop ???

[Jtreed99]

I’m saying if you want to to bump 70 at 6000rpm get the 25XS. With the 23XS you’ll be on the limiter at 65-67 mph. With some set up time you’ll likely be on limiter in cool weather and still retain holeshot and 5850+ rpms loaded in hot weather. It would probably be perfect for your rig. I have a 2007 21x2 and if I didn’t love the 24 fury4 so much I would run a 25XS.

Thanks man help full thoughts.

tried a 23 trophy today it’s rpms we’re to high. Like 6180 and 66 mph just wasn’t doing it. Will try a 24 trophy when I can but of course so much more interest in a bravo

what did the 24 fury 4 turn rpms and speed wise.

In cold weather I get 72 at 6050-6100. In the heat of summer loaded heavy 70.5 at 5950.
