would it make a difference at all in terms of performance. It planes really fast right now but as slower speeds, a lot of water shoots upwards about a 1 foot out from transom...

WOT RPMs-does that mean RPMs w/ Open Thottle (i.e. floored)-not sure yet b/c I haven't tested.

19' Glastron SSV Bowrider. When I looked at the prop, i couldn't find any numbers. I didn't take it off or anything b/c I didn't want to so something stupid. My issue seems to be not getting out of the hole because it does that quickly gets to plane fast but at lower speeds theres a bunch of water shooting upwards behind the transom... Thnaks

Water shooting straight up behind the transom is a classic sign of the motor being too low.
