    I would go to a 15 pitch 4 blade Tony. A spitfire would be good if you can find one. Cargo east marine on Marion used to carry Turning point props which I had go luck with in the past. Not too expensive and get the job done. Chrism often ran Solas 4 blades and had good things to say. Chris had tested lots of props so send him a PM.

    Don't know why but I've had better performance with Solas over the Turning point 4 blades. Same specs but with the Solas I could feel the power of the outboard. Could have been different testing conditions. I did end up getting the Turning point from Amazon as it was best deal at the time.

    @Tony I've heard some marine dealers will let you buy one and trade it back for a different one if it's still in perfect condition. So you have to pay upfront but you get the option of possibly exchanging for a different prop if you need a different one.
