Default Can I get to 70 mph?

Hey guys, I'm picking up an Ultra Stealth 24 this week and I'm a total noob when it comes to go fast boats. On the test drive with calm water, we could get about 68 mph with the stock 496. The dealership is going to either refinish the current prop or I'm going to put a new one on there. Is there a certain type/brand/pitch I need to look at to pick up a few more mph to get me to 70+? Sorry for the vague question but I don't know enough about props yet to ask it better haha.

My suggestion is to run it a bit. Get a good feel for everything. Then call bblades and tell him as many details as possible
