Need your WOT rpm and speed with your usual load on board.

Since you're turning good rpm, I'd see if it can be repaired. Or get a new one of the same size and use the dinged up one as a spare.

Just have it repaired. I ran the same set-up for 14 years 95' 285 pro xl dc with that same prop on a faststrike 150. I ran at 5600 rpms with no jack plate and the motor mounted on the 2nd set of holes. That prop is made for that rig. Hole shot was instant and ran in the high 50's.
