Running a revolution 4 with 23 pitch… Got a couple dings, thinking about getting a new one… Any suggestion on anything out there that I should give a try or should I leave good enough alone and stick with the same thing…
I had my SS prop reconditioned by a prop shop through my boat dealer. Cost me like $40 and it looks absolutely brand new. Not sure how they do it, but every ding and nick is gone and the prop runs better than ever. Might be something to look into.
what boat are you running it on? I run a Raker 21 3-blade with the big holes on my Ranger 620 and it performs awesome!
I got a like new 23 pitch tempist if your interested.

Its on a 620… what kind of rpm’s and mph are you getting?

I should clarify that it is a Raker II 21 pitch with the BIG holes. Hole shot is perfect for 2 guys with a full load of gear (my typical load). Three guys its ok, but it lags a second getting out of the hole. With my typical load I can still run on the high side of mid 50’s 56-58) at roughly 5600 rpms. This Spring with just myself 1/4 tank of gas, and a full gear load I got just over 5800 RPM’s and 60.3 MPH in cold water/air and just the right amount of chop to let it walk nicely! The biggest improvement over the 23 pitch Evinrude prop was running has been the Bow lift throughout the power band. I get the bow and more of the boat out of the water giving the chance to get more speed and definitely helps in rough water. Hope this helps.
