Diameter will affect handling for the most part. The smaller diameter, the less surface area you have on each blade...thus, less ability for the prop to grab the water. What it does, do, though is increase rpms when you go smaller. It is roughly about 100 rpms for every 1/4" of change. Down 1/4", you gain 100 RPM...go up 1/4", you lose rpm.
