Turbo Hot shot vs yamaha performance 3

My current alu prop is a bit chewed up, so i'm going to replace it in my upcoming hull refit. Anybody got experience with the performance 3 or hot shot props? which is better for outright top speed? my sr4 accelerates plenty fast, and it only ever carries 2 people most on the plane, then crawls onto the beach carrying all my siblings and all the beach gear

You want a genuine Yamaha stainless “G” series prop. They’re a semi cleaver shape, nice thin blades. Out of all the props I’ve tested they have the best acceleration and top speed compared to other props of the same pitch.
