4 blade prop

[02loftsmoor]

I just pick up a Pulse 1850 with a 200 EFI Merc. Jackplate, the PO has a 4 blade 27" cleaver on it, and it will do 60, with quite a bit of fiddling with the Jackplate and trim. and it falls off of plane right now! no slow speed at all. Now he gave me a 25" 3 blade that will make the boat go 75, but it's all over the place and quite a hand full. thinking a 23" or 24" four blade. I understand that's like asking how long is a piece of rope. but what could that do for me.

RPM?WOT? On which. You'll probably love a 4 blade in 23-25. Whats your RPM's on what you've got.
Personally, on a single engine I would not even think 3 blade anymore except for a less stable extra 2 mph or less.
Think TRO4 or clone Powertech..
