Good afternoon after having the boat for about a year i wanted to get a spare prop to allow me to go to more remote areas and safty reasons. I am going to try a SOLAS 13 1/2 15 pitch to replace my 13 3/8 17 pitch.
I also wanted a few more RPMs and a better hole shot when carring a large loads. My boat is a 4.8m Galeforce 90 E-tec which i am over the moon about.

Think it should do exactly what you want, albeit with a 20% increase in fuel used and the reduction in cruise speed etc Don't know where your setup ATM but if you like the way it performs you will hate it with the new prop outside of your intended purpose.
