Mercury Enertia ECO Propeller

Mercury has released their new Enertia ECO prop to begin sales.  The new Enertia ECO is designed for higher horsepower outboards giving them a 10% increase in fuel economy at cruise.

Mercury engineers designed the new prop with a 16 inch diameter, large blade area, and a high progressive rake, something only possible with material like Mercury's X7 stainless steel.  The goal was to make a prop to create less drag giving the boat lower planing speeds, faster hole shot, and increased top-end speed.  

All props are 16 inches in diameter and are available in three pitches, 19, 21, and 23.
