    Anyone in New England need a nice 26p Mercury Fury prop

    Don't have any boxes to ship it so was wondering if anyone local needs one. This is a super fast prop that unfortunately can't turn due to the 1.62 gears in my Mercury. I live in Townsend MA and work in Worcester/Leominster. Would be willing to meet anywhere around 495/290/190/3/2, NH or eastern CT within reason. Please IM me or text me 978-273-8528. Leading edges are a little rough nothing big and is a great candidate to have worked for your rig.

    Asking $300 cash or best offer
    Would also consider trades for Shimano or Daiwa Reels or St croix, Loomis rods
    Thanks
    Jay

    I'm running a 24.5p TXP OT 4 that has been worked on by croxton. I'm forced to run smaller pitch props for tournament loads as the 1.62 gears and the 7,000 rev limiter is a tough combo to prop for both hole shot and top end. As an example, at 88mph I was only turning 6400 rpm with my TXP. I haven't really had a chance to run WOT but am figuring I should be around 93-94 at 6800 rpm with the power pole and 36v trolling motor and a tournament load. For me, hole shot with a tournament load is more important to me than high 90s with a terrible hole shot. Plus at 1 1/4" above pad these Furys will come apart and could tear up my cav plate or sportscaster lower. The TXP is a larger diameter 4 blade. This Fury on my Gambler with 1.75 gears (which are the same gears as most 250s) was fast. Had a great hole shot and would run mid 80s at 6200 rpm. Again I was running below pad so could keep this prop together. I know everyone sees the 300x and assumes I should be running a big wheel but the tall gears and high limiter forces me to go smaller rather than larger.

    From my experience I never even tried this prop on my Bullet knowing it won't run enough rpm and more for being nervous about it slinging a blade and coming apart since I'm running it so high.

    Timing is everything in life, and the timing of this SUCKS. Been wanting to get a new prop for my Mercury for years, just been waiting for the right deal. But of course, I don't have a dime of fun money to my name since we just had our second child a few months ago, so all extra finances will be tied up for months to pay off hospital bills. Bummer man, would have loved to grab this. I've got some 4 blade on my Merc right now, no idea the details on it. Bought it from a forum member when we bought the Ranger in 2009, got it for $250. I want more speed out of my rig though, so been looking for a good 3 blade to do that, and then keep the 4 blade as a backup.
