Default where to start?

I had a empty unrigged hull. Its a 27' Signature, from what I understand it was a take off from the magnum hull some how it made it to michigan and I found it! This is my first boat so I'm very green. I found a 7.4 MPI, not the mag so 330 hp or so, I havent been able to weigh it in yet I'mthinking around 3000 lbs? So motors in and running Bravo 1's on but hasn't seen water yet, I have no prop what would be a good place to start (diameter and pitch) Of course I want to go fast but my main goals is cruising and pulling my kids a little. I am sure from what I start with wont be my last prop but dont want to waste money on a prop that would just be a back up down the road. Any help would be very helpful!!

If it is possible for you to calculate a close wet weight, we can run a calculation and get you very close to what you need and most likely nail it the first time. I think you will like the Revolution 4 as a out of the box stock propeller. We also have test propellers to get you diled in
