For V-bottom and cat owners looking to achieve maximum top speed, the Bravo I® Lab Finish allows for an increase of 2 inches of pitch, which equates to a 2 to 3 mph gain at WOT. Top-end rpm will increase by about 300, and it will spool up quicker than a standard finish Bravo I® . With the same barrel length as the Bravo LT, the Bravo I® Lab Finish propeller is designed for four-stroke outboards and sterndrive applications that will benefit from thinner blades.
The Mercury Bravo 1 is a 4-blade stainless steel propeller for high-performance, high drive height, outboard and sterndrive applications. The Bravo 1 provides excellent speed and handling, paired with a quick planing and smooth handling. Works well on several applications including; bass, multispecies, bay boats, and center consoles. Great for stepped hulls and cats!
