Performance Benefits

The Mercury Mirage Plus 3-Blade Propeller is built for boaters who love to go fast — but never at the expense of smoothness or control. From the moment you throttle up, it grips the water with authority, pushing your boat onto plane with clean, confident lift. You’ll feel that punch of acceleration, but what stands out most is the control — no slippage, no hesitation, just steady, predictable thrust that feels perfectly balanced.

Once you’re cruising, the Mirage Plus settles into its groove. The steering feels light yet firm, and turns are smooth and consistent, even when the water gets choppy. That balance gives you confidence whether you’re chasing top speed or maintaining a comfortable midrange cruise. The prop holds its shape and pitch, thanks to Mercury’s proprietary X7 stainless steel alloy, a metal that’s 30% stronger than standard stainless. It’s designed to resist flex under heavy load, maintaining consistent performance even at higher RPMs or when carrying extra weight.

Another advantage is Mercury’s Performance Vent System (PVS), which lets you fine-tune your hole shot by adjusting vent plugs. Want quicker acceleration when towing or hauling? Swap the plugs for a different setup. It’s customizable performance in your hands — an extra layer of precision serious boaters appreciate.

Simply put, the Mirage Plus delivers the kind of high-speed efficiency, lift, and grip that make every ride memorable.
