Caracal prop needed

I have a 2018 Caracal with a 225 Yamaha SHO, duel fuel tanks and power poles. It has the stock Yamaha SHO Vmax 3 blade prop, 25-T2, 151/8. When the live wells are full it cannot get on plane. I would like to get a 4 blade prop to hopefully fix that problem. I'm looking for suggestions on what 4 blade prop I should get. Thanks in advance!

I don’t know what happened to my original post but here goes again. I have a 2018 Caracal with a 225 Yamaha SHO, duel fuel tanks and power poles. It has the original 3 blade SHO VMAX 25-T2, 151/8 prop. When the live wells are full I cannot get on plane. I would like to get a 4 blade prop to help get me on plane and would like some suggestions for a prop. Thanks in advance!

Try a 3 blade 23″ pitch prop, you’ll fly out of the hole and your top speed won’t be hurt at all
