    Z8 to Z21 best prop?

    Best 4 blade? Ran Bravo1 XS on Z8 which was great. What is the recommendation on 17' Z21?
    Thanks!

    I was just talking about this with other team guys down here, the 24p Fury3 is the right prop on this hull. Have not found another prop that does better for holeshot and speed.

    I have talked to one guy who ran the Bravo Xs on his 16 Z21 and had god results.

    Thanks. This one has a Fury3 24. Curious what the Fury4 runs like.

    I have a Z8. My hole shot was terrible with a Fury 3 blade. I switched to a Fury 4 blade and it helped a lot. I may have lost one mile an hour on the top end but not sure about that. Low and mid range are better with the Fury 4.

    Fury 4 is slower, but slightly better holeshot. This is coming from reading others that tried the Fury 4. You should get great holeshot with a Fury 3.

    I know of a few that have, but never heard any numbers. I mean I regularly see 72 with my 24p Fury. I doubt a 25p would do any better, with exception to the winter months.
