    Anyone move from Rev 4 or Fury to Bravo 1 fs? Or from Rev4 to tempest?

    Below is the Mercury recommendation of changing from a Rev4 or Fury prop to a Bravo 1 fs. Was wondering if it is actually true, the RPM should be the same with increasing 2 inch pitch.

    Anyone change from a Rev 4 to a Tempest Plus? If so did you change pitch or stay the same?

    I need to get a new prop, and tying to buy only once....


    From the Mercury Website: To maintain similar engine operating rpm in single engine applications, switching from a Tempest® Plus to the Bravo I® FS would require a 1-inch increase in pitch. A switch from the Fury® and Revolution 4® to the Bravo I® FS would require a 2-inch increase in pitch.

    I went from a 24p Bravo FS to a 23p Rev4. RPMs dropped by about about 50 with the 1p drop on the Rev4.

    I don’t know, I’ve run multiple 24’s (tempest, trophy, bravo XS, fury4) and they were in the ballpark of each other. I tried a bravo xs in 25 and couldn’t turn it.
