Aluminum props do not perform as well as stainless props.
Yamaha makes two decent stainless prop models. Painted and polished.

Don't be focused on size since it is not universal across models or brands. The blade design makes a huge difference.

I would start with a 10-1/2" x 12" Performance 3-Blade, Yamaha part # MAR-GYT3B-03-12.

Expect WOT to be ~6k and 32-34 mph running light and solo.
