Prop Change

I currently have a 4 blade PowerTech with a 15 pitch. Thinking of going to a 3 blade 3x19 pitch. Any thoughts...?

you have the correct prop for you boat and motor. changing it will decrease your performance. it will put uneccesay strain on your motor and gearcase. you will lose accelleration and not have enough motor to pull top speed. also will hurt fuel economy
