Props

Has anyone put a Mercruiser 350 MPI Horizon w/Bravo 3 drive in a center console? If so what pitch props did you go with?

Any comments would be welcomed.

Thanks.

Brian

Brian, THats a hard on. YOu can have two of the same boats made on the same day out of the same mold and they may turn two different props. IT would be a good starting point to try and find the same style boat rigged the same. Propping gets very expensive if you dont do it right. There are some dealers that offer to do this for you for a slight fee. YOu can also go to mercurymarine.com and click on the prop link. You can enter your info into it and it will give you a size to start with. Good Luck.

Well it may be a "hard one" but not a "hard on". I asked if anyone had the same setup and what they were running in terms of props.I know what I have now (24's) but was wondering what anyone else was running. I am aware that there are many variables.

So I am assuming that you don't have the same set up.

Thanks.

Brain, sorry I upset you. Just trying to help you out with props. If your hitting the proper rpm then there is no need to change prop size.

And no I dont have the same set up.

OK thanks again. If I was hitting the proper RPM than I wouldn't be asking either. I am just wondering what the other guys are running with this set up.

Thanks.
