Prop for Caracal with new 4 stroke mercury 225?

[Bass Cat Boats]

Just drop an inch of pitch on the 3 blade Fury to start and run it lower.

I don’t have a lot of time on my 4 stroke Mercury. Mine came with a Bravo 1 ,4 blade 25 pitch. I am purchasing this prop in a 24 pitch for a better hole shot. There was another thread not too long ago about the props for the Caracal in which somebody ran the 25 pitch in winter and the 24 pitch in the summer.

I’m in the market for a 2nd prop for my 2020 Caracal 225 Merc four stroke, 2 26 gallon tanks, 8′ blades.  Boat came with 24P three Blade Fury that provides good performance over all.  For  a back up, I have/had a 26P Fury 3 blade but was advised by Owner of Mare Marine that the Merc might go into guardian mode if I try to spin the 26P.  So I’m selling that (already have buyer) and will now look for a back up prop or perhaps primary prop.  I see the discussion here from a couple years ago.   Curious if you found the Bravo 1 or the Fury 3 better props.  I’ve read in the past some were running the 23P Fury 3 blade on the Caracal’s with 4 strokes.   I know there are a lot of Caracal owners out there now with the four strokes so hoping for some feed back I can use.

Thanks in advance,

Brian
