The Hydromotive P5X has a lot of stern lift. I suspect this is why it was not stable and hard to control. I would think a Maximus 5 blade or a Bravo 4 blade will be your best set of props.

Bravo 1, 4 Blade is the Best Prop for this Hull. I have a raised x-Dimension that would be equal to 1" shortys. I tried Every Prop and pitch out there and come back to the Bravo 1. Its Simply the Best Prop for a Dominator!

The props you want for those speeds with the raised X is Merc Racing labbed Bravo 1.
Right side serial # K 0 4 1 4 5 0
Left side serial # K 0 4 1 4 5 1

call them direct and have them make you a set and you will save all that prop testing work,
These props are not only labbed 32's for the dom hull with the 496 HO's but they are tweeked special for our hull with the raised X. If you do not have the raised X they work good also. I ran them all last season with a 2 mph gain over my 29s
Have fun
