2003 Merc 2 stroke on a 16 Lund rebel. I have always had a problem getting it to plane with 2 people in it, and I am thinking about solutions as a new motor is not in the budget. Would a different prop make any difference? The one I have on there has a Nick, is it bad enough to have repaired right away? I have have a major trip coming up on Thursday and I am concerned about the prop
