Looking at getting a 4-blade, and was originally dead set on the Rev4 based on the rave reviews all the forums have. However, was talking to a prop guy and he suggested I look into vensuras and the mercury typhoons, since they offer a smaller diameter which would help with my lower hp v-8 (220hp). He said the Rev4 was a great prop, but might be too much prop for my boat to turn diameter wise, and that the smaller vensuras would offer a better holeshot. Anyone running a vensura or typhoon (same as the vensura but without vent holes).

Re: Vensura vs. Typhoon vs. Rev4

Check the Mercury prop site and read about the props and what they are designed for. If I am not mistaken, the Vensura is a bow lifting prop. I have one sitting in my shed 48-16314A5 14 1/2X17 w/a Honda Hub kit.
I am in the North West, so probably not of help to you.
