Question

Looking for a high performance prop for my 2009 SD22' Suncruiser by Lowe's with a 200 HP Mercury Optimax Direct Injected Motor.
Motor in Down Postion, it goes 43 mph @ 5200 rpm's
Motor fully Trimmed, it goes      51 mph @ 5650 rpm's
Factory prop tends to cavitate very easly. Need a good Stainless Steel prop, not sur on pitch.
What do you think?
