Hey guys,
I am looking to get a new prop for my 19' 2006 Bayliner 195. We use it primarily for water sports-wakeboarding and tubing. I tested it out this weekend to get some accurate numbers for you experts as I'm new to this game...I would like to get a little pop out of the hole, and maybe a little better control. Not really concerned about top speed because I never run her wide open.

WOT with trim all the way down was right at 5,000 RPM's and 44.3 MPH.
If I trim it up slighty it will go 1.6 MPH faster. If I trim it up too much RPM's hit 5,200 and rev limited kicks in.
The current prop is a 19* 14.5" aluminum (this is the boat's OEM prop)
I honestly don't know the weight, because I have read different #'s but I believe it is meant to weigh about 2,700lbs. I typically have 4 total passengers including myself with minimal gear. The engine is Mercruiser 4.3L 190HP with Alpha I drive.

Thanks in advance guys I really appreciate the help!
