15 pitch taking off then shifts to 21 pitch. Should wake the ol 3 liter right up.
I used some composite props on ours. Similar, they flatten out to a lower pitch when taking off the flex back to a higher pitch when up on plan. Worked pretty good. We had our boat on Lake Huron, near the top of the thumb. Lot of rocky points jutting out. Cheaper to buy a new composite than repair a metal one. Plus the change in pitch was nice.
