Default Whats the correct prop?

New here so be gentle!

I have a 1994 Mariah Davanti 225 cuddy with the Merc 5.7L 250 HP drive.
When I purchased the boat it had a 5 blade stainless prop on it, I am not sure of the size/pitch right off. We have had it for a few years now and it's slow to plane but runs like a banshee after planing. We plan to begin using primarily for skiing/pleasure this year and wondering if I need to change/upgrade the prop to help with the planing issue?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin

    Did you read any of the STICKYS at the top of this forum? I'm sure your questions will be answered once you do so.
