Looking at grabbing a Fury 4. Have a 921 PHX with a 250 pro XS, running a 24p Fury 3 blade right now with good results. I run my boat fairly heavy.
Thanks!

If you are happy with the the 24 now then I would stick with the 24 in the 4 blade. Most guys I know in 921's or PHX 21's are running the 25 (but with the SHO) and very happy with that combo.

Fury’s seem to run the same rpm comparing 3 to 4 blade of same pitch.
I lost 1 mph on top end running 4 over a three blade.
nice running out of the box props
I have a 921 XP with a 250 Pro XS. Running a 25p Fury 3 blade and see speeds of 72-74 with just me (150 lbs), but I'm only turning 5650 rpm. I'm running at 2500 ft elevation. I tried out my friends 24p Fury 4 this weekend at was able to hit 6k rpm, but lost 3 mph on the top end. I'm not sure if a 25P Fury 4 would be best for me or a 24P Fury 3 blade. I'll need to find someone with those props. Hope this helps a little.
Thanks for the replies, I actually screwed up...I am currently running a 25P Fury 3 blade, should I stick with 25P or drop to 24P?
I went from a 25 Fury 3 blade to a bravo XS 26 and absolutely love it. I am running a vrod pro but man what a difference all around. I am considering ordering a 27 bravo XS as well.....
I run a 25p fury 4 on the same boat and motor and love it. 71 tourney loaded and a rocket out of the hole and mid range.
The four blades carry loads better, turn better at low speeds and hole shot is better. You will lose a little top end cause your slinging more metal. JMO. and 30 years running fast
Do you guys use any PVS plugs? Thanks!
Nope wide open. My fury 4 just threw a blade after a year of hard running. I ordered a new one the next day while I wait on a warranty claim I can't stand even running a 3 blade anymore
any idea why the fury 4's are known to throw blades?
Merc took steps to improve the Fury props this year FYI.

I hope so I'm sending that one back. I put a new 25p fury 4 on this weekend and it's awesome just like the last one
I got 69.3 fully loaded with fuel, 2 guys and both livewells on champlain this weekend...pretty happy about that
If your WOT rpm's are where they need to be on the Fury 3 blade, stay with the same pitch on the Fury 4.
Why a Fury 4 over a Bravo 1XS? From all I can research a Ranger is the only hull where the Fury 4 is better and the Fury slings more blades. Anybody tried both on the same boat other than a Ranger? I want a 4 blade but don't know which without trying.
