Good news for those of you guys fishing the Legends of lake fork tournament on may 17,18th.

Mercury will be at the tournament and will be bringing a very good selection of the new Mercury Fury Propellers for you guys to try out. And buy if you want.

I will be there after the tourny hours also and will be available to help with prop selection, and installation, and setup help. (i'm fishing the tournament!)

if your NOT fishing the tournament, get with me directly and i'll help you with a demo of the new prop!!

I will have some of my "fast props" there also. So if you have a FAST boat and wanna try one of my choppers, just stop by and see me!

see ya there

steve.

Do you know the estamated price and any discounts?

Not yet. I will gather more information as we get closer.

the merc. rep, and Sartin Marine asked me if i would be interested in helping do the demo's. I said i'm all in!!!

I'm just glad to help you guys out with some testing!

I heard their going to run around 700.00....OPTI

Wife ain't going to like that.

Msrp is around 680.00

i should be able to sell them MUCH cheaper than that.

Mercury website says 689.99

http://sites.mercurymarine.com/portal/page?_pageid=126,48417&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL

I'm thinking i can sell them for 489.00

will have to get an exact number for ya guys.

wouldnt the fur slow down the water going over it? why do they call them furry? does the fur ever need to be replaced?

dude, i had to read that 4 times, before i understood what you were talking about..LOL Must be friday!! or is it Furyday.

LOL!!! its friday.

Not replaced, just shaved on occasion!!

Ronnies board.

Ronnie's bored... yes. waiting on fedex to give me a trolling motor to install.

Steve- my prop still looks new!! everytime I get the backend ready for launch, I have to give it a spin and say "Man, Steve did a damn fine job!"

Capp's Legend is still haulin ballz too with the prop tweaking ya did to his!!! scary fast!

After fishing Texoma and beating the boat up on rocks, mine doesn't!

thanks guys. I'm proud of my work, you can tell, huh?

OH, and we have 20 Fury's coming for the Legends tourny.

I talked to Billy at Sartin Marine. We'll be selling these props at a special price.

I know it sounds like alot, but this prop's suggested retail is 700.00 (as opti said earlier).
AS always you'll be able to try before you buy!!!

we'll be able to take master card,visa,checks, and yes, cash is cool too.

What kind of trade value for a brand new Trophy to purchase a 26 pitch Fury?

pm sent.

Just got in some fury's.

i brought a 25p fury to my shop and checked it all out.

the pitch is accurate, which did surprise me.

honestly...it is slightly out of balance. one slightly heavy blade, but not as bad as some of the other mercury props i've seen. it's definately usable as is.

the barrel is much longer than the tempest.
it's quite a bit lighter also, with thinner blades, due to the new x7 alloy.
It's a 14" diameter vs. the tempest at 14 5/8's diameter. which is okay too.
much better cupping on the fury and wrapped around the tips. which i like alot!!

the only drawback i see to it, is the leading edge surface area is smaller, which makes finetuning the holeshot a bit difficult. however since you have to drop 1 degree of pitch vs. the tempest that may not be a problem.
I do like the flames on the barrel. that's pretty cool!

the blades surface area seems to be bigger and longer, which is a good thing also. the 3.0 ltr's will like that.

I've heard the head guy at the mercury propeller division will also be at the legends tournament to help out. that's cool too.

Looking forward to meeting you guys at the tournament.

remember to see me about the special introductory pricing at 498.00 for any fury at the tournament!

steve

So far during "some" testing the Fury has been giving some pretty good results.

the one thing i can say for 100% sure is, that x7 alloy is really tough!!!

i have a 25 here that impacted a stump and bent the blade. Took forever to straighten it, and it still isn't perfect. Keep that in mind, IT'S NOT A STUMP FRIENDLY PROPELLER!!!!

Idling or on plane?

Show me a prop that is stump friendly :-)

he was on plane.. during a big "tournament" . I fixed the prop and now it's for sale. 25p Fury.

Thanks Steve...just wondered, most of them won't take an impact like that. But I don't have to tell you that as you make your living on mistakes or errors in judgement like that
