Default prop suggestions for 1993 scarab 31

I currently have hydromotive q4x 24 pitch props. WOT i am around 5k rpm and 74mph. I'd like to get WOT closer to 5.5k rpm as that's where the motors made peak power on the dyno. I was thinking about trying 5 blade 23 pitch. Anyone have any suggestions or experience with props for this boat?

Chances are the 5 blades won't get you to the 5500 mark.
Your better off down sizing the 4 blades or Lab Finishing them to get the better top rpm.
