Mercury Racing just released their new 600HP propeller. This new propeller is another example as to why Mercury Racing keeps pushing the boundary. They are creating state-of-the-art propellers with superior handling and top speeds. The first two boats that will feature these propellers are the DCB F29 and the Outerlimits SV29. These propellers are custom ordered through TNT Custom Marine, a registered Mercury dealer. Contact us today at 305-944-2118 or by email at tntrace1@aol.com to order yours!
With all the buzz surrounding the latest and greatest outboard power, it is easy to overlook the great sterndrive packages that boat builders are producing. The West Coast continues to be a stronghold for lightning-fast sterndrive-powered catamarans and vee bottoms, typically equipped with 502-cubic inch based power plants. These diehard customers demand superior handling and top speed from their propellers.
Mercury Racing is pleased to introduce the 600HP-Rated CNC Cleaver propeller rated for up to 600 horsepower. Featuring 1.25 inch broached splines, it is designed for Bravo XR Sport and Sport Master drives with Mercury Racing 520, 525, 540, 565, and 600 SCi power. For high-speed applications, this new development gives Bravo XR users the opportunity to run our most advanced propeller technology, which was previously only available for M6 and M8 drives.
Designed, developed and manufactured by Mercury Racing in-house, the 600HP-Rated CNC Cleaver is produced on the same state-of-the-art CNC machines used to mill Mercury Racing’s M6 and M8 drive Cleavers.
The first two boats to feature these propellers are a DCB F29 equipped with twin Mercury Racing 525, and an Outerlimits SV29 equipped with a single Mercury Racing 600 SCi. Both applications have reported significant improvements in mid-range acceleration and top speed gains of 5 mph above standard cast propellers.
All 600HP-Rated CNC Cleavers are to be custom ordered through Mercury Racing Sales via a registered Mercury dealer. Available dimensions are 14.75- to 15.50-inch diameter, 26 to 40 pitch, 15- and 18-degree rake. Every CNC propeller is delivered in a Mercury Racing Propeller Case.
