3 Blade

If you are running more short courses, a lot of the traditional 3 blades work pretty good. If you are going to a long course, the four blades can out perform.

The best advice i can give is for you to call a few prop builders and tell them you need a prop for your specific rig.

Dewald
Brinkman

Both of these builders have many Nationals and HOC inductees with people using their props.

I played with the 25 mod class for a while, try to get a hold of as many props you can and see which one works for you, hell I ran a prop I borrowed from Jim Robb, (the second one) on a C boat with 25 mod (O.M.C) 3 blade , I was told that it was originally a D wheel and the set-up did pretty well.

Phone Number...

Once it warms up go testing with both props. Get as much data as you can from each props. MPH and RPM for starters. Then call 610-926-2964 and ask for Craig. He is in Reading Pa.

Good luck

four blade

finding a four blade that works is very tough and expensive. You will have better luck with a three blade.
