After everbody's varying thoughts on horsepower I thought I would change the subject a bit. I tore my prop(23 mirage+) up at the lake last week. I have seen some 24 pitch props around(Hydromotive and Mirage+) and wandered what kind of rpm change or performance change I would see on my 272 Baja Shooter.
 
qIV hydro and mirage plus are differnt animals the mirage is bow lifting, the hydro stern. I have a 23 mirage plus(64.5 @ 4750) and 23 QIV (61.5@ 4600) but that depends on what your boat wants best to try a few diffent props

BEFORE you damaged your current Mirage plus how was it performing??the four bld usually runs a little slower,probably best to have yours repaired and labbed,this would be the least costly way also.

The mirage + was handling awesome!!! Taching out right at 5000 with full trim. I think this is the right prop for me as well. I will probably just repair the mirage+. It is not causing vibration or anything too noticeable. Might wait until winter. How much more to get labbed??

ACCLERATOR

We can repair or convert your Mirage prop to our acclerator ,THE ACCLERATOR design creates a quicker holeshot,midrange is very fast and usually you will net gain 3mph over the stock Mirage ,give me a call and we can PROP TALK.I am going to try to attach a pic of the ACCLERATOR.

Acclerator

it has less blade surface area for increased midrange accleration, and 2 degrees additional rake for lift.

overall we have found that is produces best of both worlds as much as possible on a 3- blade propeller.Thanks for asking. ;)
