[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 392801, member: 7376"] It might. It'll slow you down a little (top speed will suffer) but it helps get on plane, and runs smoother. If you do go with a 4 blade, you'll want a 9 or 10 pitch. Probably a 9. Usually when switching to a 4 blade, you'll drop an inch or two in pitch to make up for the extra blade. I ran a 10" and I loved it. Went from 11 1/4" pitch to a 10" and lost about 1.5 mph top speed, but it was on plane instantly and stayed on plane clear down to around 3000 RPM. But mine's a lighter smaller boat. [/QUOTE]
