Default Best 4 blade islander

Looking to buy a 4 blade prop for a 202 islander with 5.0 260hp. Boat has a 23p alpha mirage that came with the boat. Boat runs 62 with current prop at 5k rpms but is slow on plane and purposes a lot. I'm thinking maybe a 24p 4 blade may help. Willing to sacrifice a little speed for a better ride without hitting rev limiter. Any suggestions?

Give BBlades a call, they can help you get dialed in. They're doing some work on one of my props now.

24 will be to much.. start with a 22 and then fine tune it after you have tested it!!! Remember accurate information is key when your labbing the prop..
