Performance Benefits

The Quicksilver Nemesis 4-Blade Aluminum Propeller brings a noticeable edge to performance — you’ll feel it the moment you push the throttle forward. Its four aggressive blades dig in, grabbing the water with authority and pulling your boat onto plane up to 25% faster than a comparable three-blade prop. That means stronger acceleration, quicker lift, and less lag when you need to power through chop or change direction.

Once you’re underway, the Nemesis delivers that rare combination of control and ease. It grips through tight turns and rough water, keeping your boat planted and predictable. There’s no slipping or skidding — just smooth, deliberate handling that inspires confidence. It feels balanced, responsive, and steady across a wide range of speeds, giving you full command whether you’re cruising, towing, or exploring open water.

Built for real-world boating, the Nemesis is as durable as it is dynamic. Its high-strength aluminum construction and Phantom Black finish resist corrosion, scratches, and everyday wear. It’s tough enough to take a shallow bump without serious damage but flexible enough to absorb the impact gracefully. Easy to maintain and built to last, this prop stays sharp season after season.

If you’ve been searching for stainless-steel-level performance at an aluminum price, this is it. The Quicksilver Nemesis 4-Blade Aluminum Propeller combines Mercury’s trusted engineering with a performance-driven design that makes boating both fun and reliable. You’ll enjoy stronger acceleration, tighter handling, and smoother cruising — all without stretching your budget.

It’s not just a propeller; it’s peace of mind. From casual weekends to long days on the lake, the Nemesis gives your boat the performance edge you can feel — crisp, confident, and ready for anything the water throws your way.
