I've got a 40 gallon capacity and usually run light.
For me, the 19" stainless prop performed better than the 17" aluminum.
If you are in the habit of keeping the boat slightly loaded the 17" will do it.
You need to keep a spare prop anyway, get it and try it!
You would expect the mph to drop a little but usually the performance gained is worth it.
