You might simply try a Mirage Plus instead of the Mirage. The plus has a lot more cup to it. Or try a Bravo 4 blade. If you are at 25" pitch now, then use a 24" 4 blade.

I would try a 23 Mirage+ and a 22 Bravo1. I also would ask this question in the prop section. There are a few prop tuners that watch that section.

I have a pair of 21P cleavers for TRS--R & L rotation if they are of interest. Let me know if you're interested.

Make sure your tabs are all the way up. On my formula, if I had the tabs down at all they would lift the stern just enough that the props blew out everytime.
