Timmy,

Following that logic, I would go with 24x22 with light cup, should put you right at 2800 full load.

Always use the largest diameter prop you can cause it pays off when it is time to dock.

The opposite of this is guys who have outdrives, with props like 18x23 and such......as they get to higer planning speeds the slip decreases with drag from the hull, but at the dock most can't dock to save their lives, due to high slip and little thrust.
