[QUOTE="scoobeb, post: 446896, member: 6843"] As one fellow said here there is no point or gain with a ss prop on a 25hp merc,I used a 14 pitch aluminum solas prop on my 25hp 2 stroke merc and I was hitting near 34 mph in my 1648 Jon boat with over 1000 lbs of total weight and it still had crazy planning power so I decided to try a ss in a 13 pitch,to my suprise no difference except I mean very minor feel in planning power,not enough to justify wasting over $100. The solas was $60 and it was awesome even know lots of people hate them for some reason. I won't buy anything but solas because I've had awesome luck everytime. Now yes ss will take a beaten and last longer but overall performance is to close imo to call but some people claim they see a night and day difference but I didn't with my experience. I tell you those 25hp mercs are so darn powerful. [/QUOTE]
