Iam in need of a good prop for my boat.I use my boat for fishing and need a prop that will provide good low end torque,keep the bow down in choppy waters,plane at the lowest speed possible.I don't mind losing some top end as long as i can get good performance at the speeds i'll use the boat most. Iam sure it'll be plenty fast anyway.Its kind of funny how it seems most are worried how fast a boat will go yet most of the time its not used that way. thanks in advance David

Well the engine is installed and has been on sea trail.Prop is a 15.25- 19 pitch.engine only made 5000rps.Would a 16 pitch be correct to attain 6000rpm? thanks David
