Now that you know more about the ins and outs of prop design, you need to look at your rpm range with the curent prop at a normal load. Your '95 has an rpm range of 5000-6000rpm listed on the web. Look at the wide open throttle (WOT) rpms with the motor trimmed up as far as it will go and still run without porpoising. If you aren't running very close to 5800 I'd think you are losing holeshot performance, so you'd need to change pitchs to get there. A good vented 4 blade prop that runs 5800 WOT, tuned to let you spin say 3500rpm on take off, would be great for holeshot and handling.
