not many options. I've heard of a couple people trying the Hopkins tulip but haven't seen any good reviews on it. I would get a fresh prop from godevil. I balanced the pitch and weight on mine and got a noticeable difference.

 Re: Best prop for a 35HP GDSD???
I'm having a couple props modified for different results but the process has been way too drawn out and so far unsuccessful to be honest.
Best bet is like Will said, get a new factory prop, have it balanced and the pitch trued up and that will be your best bet unless you are just making way too much power, in which case, you'll need to add pitch and/or cup.

It grabbs a little cleaner from bottom to top. 1ish mph gain. I bit less vibration too. I like it

Hopkins is supposed to be hubbing me a prop (cleaver style). I've heard some people have had issues with his stuff so I fully intend to bring my boat with me over there, make sure the prop is pitched right, balanced right, and fits on the shaft properly.
