I bought my boat this year and it doesn't seem to get up on plane very well. It generally takes about 20-30 seconds and longer if I have more people onboard. it has a 4.3 Mercruiser Alpha one installed. I was wondering what prop would serve me the best. Any suggestions are welcome.

For prop questions you need to provide as much information as possible from the below list, it is from the contents of the Closed Sticky with the topic "Read This First!" at the top of this Forum...:

ESSENTIAL DATA REQUIRED
When posting a question about propellers, you cannot get a reasonable answer unless you provide the following information in your post: Items 1-4 are essential for meaningful response to most questions.
1) Performance issue you are trying to correct.
2) Current prop manufacturer, model, aluminum or stainless as a minimum.
3) Current prop diameter and pitch (required).
4) Wide open throttle RPM and speed with an average load (very helpful)
5) Engine/drive make, model, year, and HP
6) Boat make model, year, length and weight

The below link would be a much more thorough list of data to provide if you're looking for detailed performance numbers,
