Before you spend money on the prop, make sure you get the engine height about right.
I've got a hydraulic jack plate on mine and found the best performance with the cavitation plate 1 to 2 inches above the bottom of the boat. The setback and sharp V bottom seems to allow this without water intake problems.
I'm running a 14x19 and getting 44mph.
