1.5 gears ? Probably but verify. What rpm is WOT and trimmed ?
If near 4800rpm, that is good and then If you are looking for better planing and lower on plane speed, I'd probably run a 19" 4 blade aluminum Solas or etc. They are like $120 shipped.

Edit in: this is assuming you are not trying to make this boat a hotrod ?
