Pontoon Power

Published in the February 2013 Issue February 2013 News

Mercury Marine recently introduced seven new propellers to round out its high-performance Enertia and Revolution 4 propeller lineups including 11- and 13-pitch Enertia propellers in right- and left-hand rotation. In addition to the Enertia propellers, Mercury is introducing new Revolution 4 propellers in 20-pitch right- and left-hand rotation, as well as a 15-pitch left-hand Revolution 4. Each of these propellers enables more boaters to fit their boats with a high-performance propeller.

Enertia propellers, made with the Mercury proprietary X7 alloy that is 30 percent stronger and four times more durable than conventional steel, have always been a top choice for high-horsepower pontoon boats. Enertia features a high-blade area, low-diameter design that is a perfect fit with the performance demands of today’s high-horsepower ‘toons.

“The 14-pitch Enertia in particular has been the go-to prop for pontoon boaters” says Dirk Bjornstad, senior brand manager for Mercury Propellers. “The 11- and 13-pitch props ensure there is an Enertia prop for all pontoons using high-horsepower outboards.  The 13-pitch has outstanding performance—especially when paired with the new Mercury 150 FourStroke.”

Four-bladed Revolution 4 propellers are known for their aggressive holeshot and excellent top speed, and the three additions—a 20-pitch in left and right hand and 15 pitch in left-hand—complete the lineup. (www.mercurymarine.com)
