Default 4-blade aluminum prop?

Currently I have an older 16ft V-hull with a new Yamaha F115 on the back. The added the weight of the 4-stroke has created considerable bow rise before out of the hole. I was wondering if a 4-blade aluminum would help keep the bow down out of the hole in this instance. Thanks.
