4 blades typically give better hole shot and mid range cruise due to reduced prop slippage, but top end tends to suffer because of extra drag from the extra blade. Is this a 2.0l, 2.4L, or 2.5L engine? Pretty sure the 2.5L didn't come out unti lthe early 90's, but thats not to say the powerhead wasn't swapped out with one at one time. Also would help to know what gear ratio is in the lower unit. From the factory the 2.0L had a 2:1, and the 2.4/2.5 had a 1.86:1 lower unit. If you get a 1.86: lower on a 2.0L, it will be dog out of the hole. I've always liked the large diameter 3 blade props for ocean going boats with outboards. Not to much of a fan of turning point myself from all the bad reviews I have read on them being VERY inconsistent and poor build quality.
