    4 blade questions?

    I could upsize my 4 blade prop.

    Running 25 Bravo xs on my SHO stratos 294 combo, which I propped for summer and heavy load. I have to watch my RPM when I am alone or if its cooler out.

    I could go with a 26 Bravo or what pitch Fury 4 for a 100 to 200 less RPM? And is the Fury 4 less fuel efficient?

    My holeshot suffered quite a bit going from 25 t1 to a 26T2 but it is spot on max RPM wise when fishing solo this summer. I already have a holeshot plate and a hydraulic jackplate.

    I'd get a 26 Bravo1 XS or 25P Fury4. Depending on how many rpms you are seeing now.

    Do you think the 25 fury 4 would give my combo more, less or the same RPM as the 26 bravo Xs?

    I am confident that I am at or near 6200 RPM with 25 P Bravo Xs cause with my 3 blade 25 P I am over 6100 when its cool.

    Talk to Rothwell Marine. They sell both and will let you exchange if it doesn’t work. From what I have read stick with Bravo1XS unless your putting it on a Ranger and I would probably think about a 27 Bravo1XS. Most people running a 3 blade 24 Fury run a 26 Bravo1XS except for me. I run heavy.
