Hello

I currently have Solas Amita 3 Blade Aluminum 15" dia. X 15" pitch. This one

Solas Amita Aluminum Boat Propeller #8712-150-15 for Volvo Penta Sterndrive Aquamatic 270 Short Hub 110 - 260 HP - iboats

What effect would it have if changed to 14 3/4 x 15 Solas Amita 4 blade prop.This one

Solas Amita Aluminum Boat Propeller #8714-148-15 for Volvo Penta Sterndrive Aquamatic 270 Short Hub 110 - 260 HP - iboats

Iam looking for quicker planing time and planing with more people aboard.
Would this help ?
It is on a 89 Citation with a vp aq151c with a 290 outdrive.

Many Thanks David
