    Best bow lifting 4 blade prop?

    Looking for the best 4.25" bow lifting 4 blade prop. Had the Spitfire X7 and it did not lift the bow well at all.

    Many of the bow lifting props dont come in low enough pitchs for your motor. Trophy plus may be one of the only choices for you.

    Just saw your motor- don't think the Bravo comes in a low enough pitch. Check Mercury Hi Five or Trophy.

    It wont even fit on his lower unit... The high5 in a small barrel is too small in diameter.

    The even pitch high 5's have a small barrel. The odd pitch high 5's have the large barrel. While an excellent rough water prop, the high 5 is not a bow lifter. Neither is a stock bravo. A bravo XS or tempest lifts the bow well.
