Prop size/pitch general question

[jb203495]

I am new to boating and last year purchased a 20' deck boat with a 150hp mercury xr6 outboard. I damaged the prop last fall and need to replace it. I currently have a mercury 15"/19 pitch alum prop. What are good options for diamater and pitch to replace with. I am also considering upgrading to stanless steel. I am new and any help would be greatly appreciated.

In order to tell if your setup works, whether a change is in order and what change
we need your wot(wide open throttle)rpm and speed.If you do get your prop fixed
and do need a prop change you can keep the prop for a spare or sell it.
