Subject: props for 4-strokes


I have resntly purchesed a 2007 G3 V172 with a 115 Yamaha 4-stroke. From the factory it came with a 13 1/2 x 19 prop. I could only get 4400 rpm out of it (5500-6000 red line) with a top speed of 35 mph. I went to a prop repair person and he gave me a 13 1/2 x 17 pro tech prop. It ran 45 mph but ran out at 6000 rpm. I went back to him and switched to a 13 1/2 x 19 pro tech and ran 38 mph at 5400 rpm. I would like to run 42-43 mph at about 5600 rpm. Any thoughts?????

please ANY thoughts. Thanks in advance.
