new prop for speed
 
I have a 1650 john boat with a 2002 60 hp Yamaha, and considering a new prop. currently I can run about 5500 rpm and have a top speed of ~35. Do any of you have recommendations on a faster prop. I would like to get the boat to around 45, and consider it doable based on the light weight of the boat. any advise would be much appreciated.

Not gunna happen with that size motor unless you do some serious performance upgrades to the block. I have a 15 foot duracraft with a 70 yamaha and it runs 40 max....38 with 2 people and fishing load.
