    Id use that 25m as a Spare and get your hands on a 26 Tempest! Best prop for your boat hands down, 26 Trophy does good too! You need LIFT, That M series prop wont lift a fart! Trust me I been through all of em with your same hull

    They use a flowtorque hub that you can get a yamaha kit for. you can change the hub out yourself without going to a prop shop.

    Or, if you get a Merc prop without the hub kit, you can use said Merc prop just by changing to a Merc thrust washer.

    But what if he wanders over to the big water of Chicot? he could hit 45-50 there.
