5-Blade Prop?

[Chris Snider]

Awwww, why not... I guess I'll post another question. My motor has a 5-blade SS prop called "High Five"... There are no other markings on the prop itself, so I have no idea what the pitch is or if "High Five" is the name of the company or model. Anyone ever heard of these props? I've never even seen ANY 5-blade prop in the catalogs or online. What would the benefit be of having a 5-blade prop (or is it actually a bad thing)?

Just looking for advice/opinions...

Mercury makes the High-5 and it is a very good prop, designed for heavier boats that are harder to get "out of the hole".....Check the Mercury website for all the techs and specs,.....that's an excellent prop!
Good luck,
