    Bravo 1 FS

    I am trying a new Bravo FS and going from a fury. 2022 TRX 20 the fury is running at 3.5" p2p what would be a good p2p to start the bravo prop at?

    At least 1 inch higher than the fury3. But every rig is different.

    I started at 2” below.
    6k rpm’s 70mph and 22psi water pressure
    I think I’m going to go up a little more.

    Update: I love the Bravo FS prop maybe a 1 to 2 mph slower then fury 3 but I love the higher motor height and the handling is great. I will gladly give the mph up for the all round prop like the Bravo.

    I have said this for years... Some just don't want to give any speed up.... It's worth it.

    I just went from a Tempest plus to a Bravo 1 fs, feels like a whole different boat. for the better.

    ... I own both a Bravo 1 FS and Tempest Plus for my Ranger RT198p. Use both and love both. You can really run the Bravo high. In fact on my boat with Merc 150 4S (non-Pro XS), I lose water pressure before the Bravo slips as my water pickups are not low enough to run it that high. You really cannot go wrong with either on a newer-model Merc 4S.
