Every boat is different so it is impossible to have a definitive answer.
The 37's are slipping a little more than I would like to see.
These drives are touchy and the boats slippery. My initial thoughts without much info is to lower the drives and retest with dads props.
Or, get the X dimension and give me a call.
I feel 17x37 900HP 18 degree are going to work with set up changes.
