Default prop

I am no expert i just play one on the internet, but sounds like your prop would be too big, but 17p prop shouldn't be too big, you should be able to get atleast 5500-6000rpm out of that motor, 4500-5000 is good cruising rpm, but that shouldn't be your max, i had a 40hp turning a 17p prop at more than 5k rpm, i would play around with different props and see what gives!!!!!
