    Prop advice

    fury 4 or bravo 1 is the question? 2001 sprint 297 dc. 2001 merc 200 efi. Slow to get on plane and I have blow out issues. currently running a 25 trophy plus. prop to pad is 3 1/2 inches. still have around and inch on the jack plate that I could go down. prop is dinged up a little so im ready for new. im getting 63 alone and 60 with 2 people. rpms are around 6000. Ordered a digital tach. Havent hit the water yet but wanting to order new prop. just looking for a little advice.
    thanks

    I haven't run a Fury yet, but the Bravo 1 with 4 1 inch holes, woke up shot up on my 207....

    Before you order new prop try a little negative trim when launching. Trim all the way down and then trim up a 3 count. This will help keep the nose down.

    Also could come up on the plate a little....I ran my old 225 HO with a 27 Renegade at 2" below the pad.....
