SS Props for Tracker Fishing/Party barge 21 w HP Logs

I have an '09 Tracker Fishing Barge 21, 90 HP four stroke with aluminum 13.25 X 17 SOLAS MYTH prop. The aluminum prop is already showing some wear so I am thinking about getting a SS prop. I am satisfied with the performance and do not want to loose any midrange or top speed. It will run 39 GPS with me (220 lbs), two anchors (30 lbs), 30 gallons of gas, and a trolling battery on board....and 30+ with 5 more adults added.

I have noted similar numbers from other Tracker Fishing/Party Barge 21 owners and would like to know what type of propeller you are using.

I know some of you have a lot of experience with props and would like to hear your recommendations for a SS prop.

I did use the Mercury Marine prop selector program and it suggested a 13 X 18 Vengance prop.

Thanks for your input.

Wed, When I changed to a stainless prop on my boat, I went with a Vengeance (QS511X), 13 1/8 X 16. It is what Dans Discount Boat Propeller recommended and I,m really happy with it. The motor turns right at max rpm with it at proper trim.

Thanks Brumby, I will check out that prop.

I was hoping for a few more responses from the Tracker NV group just to see if there is a common prop or prop design. I suspect there is.

Thanks!
