12 eyra 250 pro xs. I have a 26 fury that appears to need some work. Top speed of 78 @ 6050 rpm. I am wondering what to expect if I get this prop worked vs. a new unworked 27 fury.

On a 12 Eyra that seems like a 26 might be better.

Most are running a 26 Fury. When i got mine the 26 Fury was a little beat up. I sent it to Croxton who cleaned it up and returned it to spec. It lowered my RPMs and I picked up 1 to 2 mph.I would not suggest a 27 Fury unless you run super light as your hole shot will suffer.I hear Ronnie Gilbert does real good work with props for BCB so you may want to check out his services. Im sure someone can provide his info shortly.Good luck!

I have a 2012 Eyra and am running a 26 pitch Fury. When the boat was new, one person, lightly loaded (had not put my BassPro Shop tackle store in the boat) it would run 82 at 6000 Rpm, about 78-79 now. I also use the 4 battery setup. I tried a 27 on my last boat, a puma, and was not happy. I have my prop at Ronnie Gilberts shop for a complete repair including balancing and blue print. Ill let you know the results
