Prop balancing and pitch?

Prop balancing and pitch?

I was thinking about having my props balanced and checking the pitch. Is there anyone in or around Sodus that someone could recommend. Any input would be appreciated.

Prop Shop, right at Sodus Point.

I am in Webster and I had no idea there was someone close by. I have been to a place in Canandaigua for the only repair I have ever needed. I would like to find a prop shop that works with the customer. I am 100% sure there is a better prop for my boat. I found a guy in FL who is willing to send me 4 props for testing. Then I keep the one I want and send the others back. I would like to find that same service up here. Right now I am spinning 6350 - 6400 WOT / 40mph burning 29.5 GPH (best ECO cruise is 2.3mpg @ 4000rpm 27mph). I need more pitch. The boat came with a 13x16 mirage plus on it. I would like to try a 15x15 Enertia. In practice it would drop 600 rpm with that prop. But, it is a smaller diameter so it may only drop 400 which would be fine. Does anyone have any info if a place like this is in our area.
