Not at all likely if prop to pad is correct
24 fury fury will run 3 to 4 mph slower than a 3 blade and soon to become a 3 blade as well!
I have not measured prop to pad yet. That will be the first thing I do when I get the boat back along with getting the serial number for the motor. Also this boat never did this before the propeller bent, so either way I will be ordering a 25p tempest to see if that fixes the issue. Never been a fan of 4 blade props especially on a low river like the Mississippi. Still worried about the oil and smoke though.
