If you like the performance of your rig as it stands, I'd suggest staying with what you have. If you want to change but stay aluminum, you can check out a solas alcup 3, which will have a larger exhaust opening, but a fully cupped blade. It has a squeeze cast design so it will flex less than a normal cast aluminum, and with the cupping, will potentially get you a better bite on the water. The blades are a little bigger too, which means better thrust.

If you go steel, the michigan ballistic 13-5/8 x 17 should run the same rpm's as your stock aluminum, but it will allow you to move your motor up off the transom. I'm guessing your boat is a tiller model?
