just remember that all 14" x 11 pitch props are not alike.
for a Mac you need one with alot of surface area (AKA big dog ears/pontoon-work style prop).
i've found that the inexpensive Hustler brand props, even with the correct diameter and pitch, generally have narrow blades thus do not allow you to push/move enough water. this creates cavitation.
i really like Quicksilver black diamond props with the torque flow hub. excellent value and quality.
