Best Prop for a 2001 PQ 280 silencer??

I am running a labbed 26 bravo on my 280 Powerquest Silencer w/496 HO at 5,000....but my cruise speed sucks. I belong to a boat club and need a better cruise speed..say somewhere 48-52at approx 3800 any suggestions? Powerquest says that these boats don't like 3 blades. How bout a Hydro? Also, is it normal to have to use a lot of positive trim on these boats?
