Does anyone have the new style propeller that they are wanting to sell that's in good shape?

Thanks in advance

Gator has one for $225

That's old style built in hub - not new flo thru. If it was the Flo-Thru it would be on my Yamaha

And since I seem to be memory challenged, I walked out to the garage to check it.

Man was I wrong. It is a 26P Trophy 4 Blade with an old-school Mercury Hub.

I HAVE A TEMPEST PLUS 27P ON MY 225 EFI . IT ONLY RUNS TOPS AT 5200 RPM. I WOULD BE WILLING TO CHANGE IT TO A 26P IF YOU WISH TO TRADE ??

I have a 200 elite Champion 2007. I would like to try a 26 Pitch. We can meet and go for a boat ride somewhere if possible. This mercury motor 225 Pro xs has the newer style hub.

I've tried a 27 pitch tempest and found my boat ran faster then a 25 pitch at WOT but the RPM was right at or < 5500 which is the lower rpm limit.

Thanks

bump................ also does anyone have a 26 pitch tempest I might be able to try out?? I live close to the motherlode lakes and the delta but rather try it on one of the mother lode lakes due to the trash floating at the delta. Wouldn't want to ding the propeller.

thanks

Sorry it took a while to get back to you, I've been busy with the ISE shows.

I'll be on the river next week either Wed or Thur.

I am running a 27 tempest now (brand new been on the water 2 times) but, I think I might need to trade down to a 26P... I'd love to try a four blade 26 or a four blade 27.

I have a decent hole shot now, but it's not like it was when I had a 25 on my last optimax 225. I am running about 6 mph faster with the 27 than I did with the 25.
