Try a 4 blade Cyclone prop. That is what I use when carrying a lot of people. The grab and holeshot is amazing, a lot less blowout when cornering as well. You will lose a couple miles per hour top speed however but who cares when you have 10 or 12 people on board.

As an fyi, my dash speedo reads 4 MPH faster at top speed than GPS.

Glad to see another Mani on the lake!! I absolutely love mine!!
