A 4 will usually get up quicker and stay on plane better.Should give a little more control.
3 blade should give good overall performance with a little more top end.

i have a 4 blade 9.25x9 and my 14ft acecraft planes out with 2 adults and 2 kids. just not a fast plane. plus it trolls extremely well too!
