What's it do now?
Fast out of the hole? Slow?
HP?
What degree is the propshaft sticking out the bottom?
gears?
All stuff your prop guy will want to know.
Another guy to try is Ron Braaksma, google RBprops.
I would test an 11 1/4 or 11 3/8 X 16 three blade Menkens. The 16 would load the motor more and the diameter 'should not upset' the boat too much. IF you have a 'round bottom keel, all the way back', you may encounter control problems ???? Often I have had to run 15 pitch VS 16 pitch to attempt in controling the 'hull torque reaction' when the hull has no 'flat spot' or 'delta pad'. If you have a 'round bottom', the next step is GEARS, and with a C-500 our progress hits a big wall....
