Default Best Places to Prop Shop?

Hi All:

Looking to tinker with prop choices. Thinking a 17 pitch tempest pro or enertia to see if it get all it can out of my 150 Optimax hooked onto a 2090 Warrior. The current laser II does not get me enough RPM at WOT. May consider moving motor up as well but want to start with the prop first.

Hints on best places to search for good used props? Will not consider reworked props unless were done by well known and respected prop shops.

Thanks for any help folks!

If you want used props, go to a local boat dealer. They will either have an assortment of used props or know who does, and a dealer may be willing to let you try, then swap for another prop.
