    Enertia Eco Pitch From Bravo or Fury

    Looking at testing out an enertia eco prop, I know these things are huge with big blades so I'm wondering if anyone knows if you have to drop many pitches to get similar RPM to something like a fury or bravo 1 xs. Currently been able to get about 5700RPM out of a fury 24p and bravo 24.5p so was looking at the 23p enertia eco.

    Reason I'm looking at it is my dad runs one on his boat and its been a pretty sweet overall prop, great holeshot and tons of lift

    On my Merc 150 fourstroke with 1.92:1 gear, I run a 22p Tempest Plus, 23p Bravo 1 FS and 21p Enertia Eco all to about the same 5800 ish WOT rpm. Fury 3 usually runs about 1 pitch stiffer than a Tempest so it is possible the Enertia Eco and Fury 3 will run the same rpm at the same pitch for you. Only way to know for sure is... yada yada

    I like large diameter props on most bassboats set ups.

    I recently put an Enertia Eco on my boat. 200 V8 4S. 1.75:1 gearcase. I went with the Mercury racing version. I switched from a 23pitch Fury to an Enertia Eco 20.5pitch XP. RPM very close probably would have been about same if I would have went with 21pitch Eco. Lots of lift. Removed the PVS plugs and it launches out of the hole. Holeshot was ok with solid plugs.

    Thank you for that info, I’ve got an optimax pro XS so I’ll probably start with the plugs out and see how holeshot is then!

    Did end up testing out an Enertia eco 23p on my rig, was faster than my bravos and fury4, but holeshot wasn’t there, was just hard to spin up even with all PVS holes wide open. The lift and mid range performance of that prop is incredible though, definitely accomplishes its goal of efficiency, handling and top end were great too. If I had a bit more low end torque I’d be keeping that prop for sure but my opti just can’t spin it up quick. Think I’m gonna see what it does on my brothers rig, he’s got a bit smaller boat and a 4S pro XS

    can add more pvs holes? I had 8 in a bravo 1 if you can't spool engine up to 3500-3800 on holeshot it will be a slow one
