Default 4 Blade prop on 29 Scarab

Is anybody running 4 blade props on a 29 Scarab with twin 350's? If so what type of performance are you getting (top speed and cruising speed)?

I'm in the process of putting 144 blowers on my 350's and just trying to figure out what prop to go with. I am currently running 23p but would like to go to 4 blades.

I'm glad someone got my joke. I had 144s on my old scarab, I would love to hear two blowers wining together at full throttle. It will sound awesome. I always had the best speed results with three blade props on my old boat. 4 blades seem to give me to much lift and porpoising at cruising.
