Depends on the boats personality and your goals.
There are props from a number of manufacturers that will work.
Do you have current propeller performance numbers?

My current boat I get the same speeds out of 26 bravo and 24 maximus, and even though the maximus has better cruise speeds at a given rpm they get worse mpg at the same mph as the bravo, and they make the drives clunk around the docks, they are like the drag slicks of props they just really hook up. This boat hated the P5x I think the diameter is to small to work well on it.
I say it over and over every boat is different best thing to do is try as many props as you can so you can figure out what the boat needs and if your lucky an off the shelf prop will do it, and if not Brett can make you a custom set based on all the testing you have done.
