Boat: Crownline 266br, Mercruiser 7.4 MPI, L29, with Bravo 3 outdrive. I’m running a 22P and 24P duo prop. 2.00:1 gear ratio
My question: is the propeller I’m using the best for all around use?

Go to the turning point website and use the the prop finder and see what they suggest

What RPMs are you seeing at WOT with that setup? Is it within, preferably in the upper half of the recommended WOT range for that engine?

Hi
i must admit I’m not too up on the bravo drives and big blocks at all...but all the bravo drives I’ve seen with the counter rotation props, have both props the same stamped pitch. Do you mean you have one prop 22 and the other 24 ?
Not saying it isn’t a thing. Just I’ve never seen it really 24” or 26” matching props would be the norm on similar set ups I’ve seen with a 2-1 ratio.
All the best.
