Please explain!
 

I always wondered what was the reason for have 2 props. Looks interesting, so what does this set up do?

its for speed and a way to have enough room to fit 6 blades, if you race your boat or need a motorcycle helmet with shield because you drive 70-80 mph on the water they are nice to have. if you have money to set fire to, and like your boat to barely get wet on a plan then they can be something to show off at the boat launch

Anything I have ever heard and read about these props states the opposite of what you claim here.

The Bravo III provides straight backing, better hole shot, better grip in corners and planing at lowers speed - all at the expense of top end.

Lol

always heard better hole shot. never owned one.

Or
 

You could just go this route..

more money!

What Goooh said............however I don't think on a smaller boat it would make a negligible difference

Most people use them on tunnel hull boats. More surface area less slip so they can run the engine higher. They are popular with the redfish tournament guys.

Exactly this

I would think it improves torque tendency on the steering.

So it would make a significant difference?

Exactly what its about!

Its like having 2 outboards with counter rotating props.

Winner....winner.....this technology been around a few years...

Is there a SC cash take away for post number 2? We should have some consequences for posting like Google hasn't been invented

They were first made for Yamaha 150s for the bass guys to squeeze as much speed out them as they could. Then they took off in the Texas tunnel boats for the reasons everyone above mentions.

this was what I was told also

I'd hate to cut a crab trap out of one of those .....

Counter rotating(shaft within a shaft spinning in opposite directions) for better hole shot, less steering torque, slightly better speeds(and more problems).
