Default Increasing Small Outboard Power

I have a 1996 Mercury 3.3 HP 2 stroke outboard that does a decent job.
Recently, I ran aground and chewed up the prop. I need to replace it
but here's where the question popped up. Is there a way to increase
the speed/power of this motor with a different prop (or any other
means)?

I see that there's an optional Black Max prop for this outboard but I
don't know if it make any difference except in price.

Is there anyway (prop, fuel, plug or anything else) to increase the
power and speed from this outboard without having to buy a higher
horsepower outboard?

I'm hoping that there's a way without damaging the outboard. Any
experience or suggesting would be greatly appreciated!
