Got a 2015 gtr stock minus exhaust, about due for a new prop, stick with the 3 blade or try something different? Thank you. |

Gtr stock props are the best. 3 blade better for open water. 2 blade better for mud and grass. If you liked your 3 blade get another. |

I went from a 3 blade to a mud buddy big blade and personally I haven't seen much difference in the 2 other than I lost 1mph on the top end and it reverses better than the 3 blade did. Like msm said if you like the 3 blade go with it. |

We were stuck like chuck with a 3 blade on the new style lower unit and Brady eased on through the junk with a two blade them pulled us out. I would say two blade. |

How many hours do you have on the 3 blade? |

I like my big blade on my gtr. Its faster than my 10p 3 blade and the hole shot is a lot better |

I asked bc i was thinking you may have had low hrs like me. I have less than 20,run very little sand and prop is already sucking when i have a heavy load. I originally thought it was my motor, but it runs fine with a light load. Pretty sure itsthe prop now. 10p 3 |

Leaking valves if your prop is in good condition but the performance gradually tapers off |

x2 ^^^^ same issue I had with my boat. I thought it was my prop, ended up being the valves. They were leaking pretty bad. Boat ran normal with a light load as soon as I added another person she was a turd. I even went to a 10p and it helped but still wasn't like new. I would look into a leak down test!!! |

How much leakage is too much? I've heard of people tapping on the valves with a rubber mallet and it sometimes cures the problem |

Its gotta be an astronomical amount to be covered under warranty. Best thing to do is deck heads, and 1pc valves. Hit up boat dr or jamie b and they will get you setup straight. Paired with a mikuni carb and headwork, itll be like running a completely new motor. I could never drive/own another stock motor. |

Just put it in the shop, they say it will be covered by briggs warranty. Thanks for the help and the advice. Had a mb 23mini for years, so I'm happy with the way it ran before this started... Atleast until warranty is up lol. I've got a 250merc on bass boat, so they all seem slow to me. |
