I would like to try a 25P Mirage prop on our boat. Does anybody have one that I could try before making a purchase? Note, I am looking for a standard Mirage and not a Mirage Plus. The Mirage Plus props create to much bow lift for our boat. Thank you in advance to anyone that can help a brother out.

Thank you for the offer, but unfortunately the boat is stored in Havasu. Bummer though, because Elsinore is nice and close to me. What kind of speed, and RPM are you seeing with the Ballistic 4 blade? What are you running for power in your boat?

Sweet, looks like you are located close by as well. I would need it for the weekend (headed to Havasu). Would that be a problem? Want me to leave the wife behind as a deposit? :)

Want me to leave the wife behind as a deposit? :) No thank you. :) The fact that you are willing to leave her behind tells me all I need to know.... ;)

I spoke with Chris at Laveycraft this afternoon, and he suggested also trying a 24P Bravo 1 prop. Perhaps somebody has one of these laying around I could try this weekend?
So many different opinions on which prop to run, and so little money to purchase all of them with.
