Default What prop size for my narrowboat?

What prop size for my narrowboat?

Hull: 70ft long 6ft 10 inches wide.
Weight: 10 tons
Engine: 48 BHP at 2800 (54BHP at 3000)

There is 11 inches between the centre of the shaft and the counter

I currently have a prop with an 18 inch dia and 13 inch pitch. However the
engine never seems to struggle to turn the prop even when slamming in
reverse from full forwards.
