Mercury Bravo 1 XC Propellers

The Mercury Bravo 1 XC propeller features an extra-cupped design—with nearly 30% more cupping along its trailing edge—ensuring superior engine hook-up and extended prop life by acting as a sacrificial anode. Bravo 1 XC boasts a generous blade area and an optimized exhaust tube for rapid planing, improved low-speed grip, and enhanced throttle response.

Bravo 1 XC Propeller

4-Blade Stainless Steel Pro-Finished Propeller

Description

Mercury Bravo 1 XC Pro-Finished Propeller

The Mercury Racing Pro Finished Bravo I XC Propeller, designed specifically for single outboard powered hulls, features a tremendous amount of blade cup. Ideal for shallow water running Flats Boats. The enhanced cup enables the engine to be run at elevated transom heights – without sacrificing performance. The larger blade area enables the prop to stay hooked up for quick planing and enhanced performance throughout the engine rpm range. The exhaust tube is designed to support planing and stability at lower speeds. The Bravo I XC outperformed many four blade offerings with shorter time to plane, improved grip at lower speeds and quicker throttle response.

  • Hub kit is sold separately. Please see the fitment information provided to select the correct hub kit for your application.
  • Enabled with 4-hole Performance Vent System (PVS) to allow optimal hole-shot customization.

Important Note:

  • According to the Mercury propeller guide handbook the added cup reduces rpm, plan to drop 2" of pitch compared to standard Bravo 1. Also, if running a jack plate consider increased engine height.

Running the Bravo 1 XC on a Majek 24 Reaper and the performance is unbeatable. The boat gets on plane IMMEDIATELY and the holding exceptional.

This is the best prop for shallow water running period. I've fished the gulf my whole life and tried several different props but this one is the best.

Running a Mercury 300HP on my Simmons Revolution 25 and the performance is amazing. The boat came from Simmons with the Bravo 1 XC already I was just getting another as a spare. So I know it works well already.

Shallow water performance

The Mercury Bravo 1 XC propeller features an extra-cupped design—with nearly 30% more cupping along its trailing edge—ensuring superior engine hook-up and extended prop life by acting as a sacrificial anode. Designed for shallow water applications like the Gulf of America, it boasts a generous blade area and an optimized exhaust tube for rapid planing, improved low-speed grip, and enhanced throttle response.

Plug-and-play performance.

The Bravo 1 XC propellers features Mercury’s patented Performance Vent System (PVS®), which uses interchangeable vent plugs in up to three holes to precisely control exhaust gas venting for an optimized hole shot. By swapping plugs in seconds—from fully closed to various vent sizes—boaters can dial in engine RPM for quicker planing under different loads and altitudes
