"I have basically the same question but also need to know what pitch is best? Just purchased a 15 hp and plan on using it to motor a 14ft inflatable with gear and people. Also will be towing several other 14s...not looking for speed but the best prop to get us going and cruise at the best fuel usage.

Thanks,

"I've read 4 blades will work better for loads, sacrificing speeds. So, if you'll be "trailering" other inflatables, I guess 4 blades would be the way to go. Also, pitch in 4 blades should be lower that in 3 blades.

I'm no expert, just read about it..."
