Hello, I have a Bayliner 185 and a 6hp yamaha 2012 model that i'm trying to mount to the swim platform as a kicker in case of main engine failure. Ofcourse the boat will be traveling very slow with the 6hp at full throttle. Should I consider to change the prop? And if so what to change it to? I guess a lower pitch for higher RPM at the same speed?

Thanks!
