Word.
Even without the question of the reversed pic or counter rotating prop the 25P is a game killer. 4 blades = lots of hole shot, but lots of drag on the engine also. Your engine simply isn't strong enough to spin that wheel at the proper WOT revs. I would think the MAX for your engine would be a 21P 3 blade. Of course, you can't really know until you actually try a prop on your particular boat, but 25p is simply too much bite in the water.
