Which is the best Stainless Steel Prop for 2009 Yamaha 115 (four stroke)

[rromero]

Just purchased a 20ft Hewscraft with a Yamaha 115 (four stroke). Curently has a standard 131/2 15-K prop. Would like to get a good stainless steel that would not affect my performance. Any suggestions?

What are your present performance specs.Max rpm and speed and load.
Check out the turning point props.Stainless performance at aluminum prices.

Thanks for the reply
Took it out for the first time this weekend. Did not hold speed, dealer recommended throttling back an forth and not keep throttle steady until its been out a couple of times. Going out this weekend. The prop they put on it is a 131/2 x 15-K, just didn?t feel it was running as smooth as it should (had a Honda before mush smoother). I am up here in Alaska, I want to go chase some Salmon and Halibut, and what to make sure it is running right. What numbers RMP wise should I be looking for?

I know I had it between 4500 and 5000 for a short spell.
