Please let me know what prop you end up with. I have a 2005 Merc 9.9
4-stroke and I think the prop is too steep (among other things!)

Right now I have a 9x9. The boat is a flat bottom skiff that
I built using stitch-n-glue. I think that 9x9 is over propped. I think they
make a 9x8 and a 9.? x 7.5.

Originally the boat had a high-thrust prop when it was used as a kicker.
