Hi All,
Today I test drove/agreed to purchase a '94 Formula 252 with a Merc 7.4/Bravo III setup. I've never had a Bravo III before, and it has 26p props on it. The boat hit 51 mph at 5000 rpm. I am pretty sure this is higher than the recommended RPM range for a 7.4 (42-4600?). I am not familiar with the RPM gain/loss with different pitches on bravo III and am looking to see what I should try next. Any recommendation will be appreciated.
