Try a lab'd 24 first - if you can. It might give you the extra mph over the stock 24. Or, get your 26 worked on.

it just depends on what you want? all out top end ? midrange cruising ,hole shot? the four blade will surley give you a smoother ride in rough water,I would add a litlte pitch and lab the prop. you already have a good one to work on.
