Engine just repaired, runs great. Could a prop change make up 1500 RPM's ? I don't know what else to try.

Good example of why it's helpful to post yer boat/motor in your profile info...can't remember what motor you have...but obviously you've got some RPMs to make up, but my thought is a 17-19 P prop of same diameter..and look into the suggestions others have made...
