Think this prop is fitting?

Got a 20 ft flat bottom boat. 8 ft wide. Commercial boat. Not sure on weight. 30 gallon fuel tank. Will have total of 90 gallon live wells. It's a weldbuilt boat. Has a 1987 johnson 175 hp on the back. Motor had no prop. Was told had a 14.5 by 24 15 spline on it before. Think this would be fine? Thanks.

Also just did some quick looking. Seems like only stainless steel is the option.... I want to use aluminum cause of cost and will be a river boat. So sure be hitting things.

Would be fine to move along the boat, but probably not best to suit your current load application specially at wot as previous prop has not been tached to check if working inside safe min-max wot rpm factory stated for that engine,

Happy Boating
