I did the swap from 15x15 Yamaha aluminum to the stainless reliance 14.5x15 on my last boat with the 150 Yamaha and it did gain a couple more MPH and a better hole shot. You will not be disappointed, it will work awesome on your boat.
My boat came with a Yamaha M series 14 pitch. I was up against the rev limiter, and I swapped to a Reliance 15 pitch and it's 6000 rpm's exactly. Runs out perfect with no ventilation in tight turns.
I used to go thru an aluminum prop a year--chopping them up on the bottom of our rock bottom lake. Since I switched to stainiless props, I've gone 15 years with no damagest. The stainless is just so much harder of a material.

Bamaman, We have boulders that like to eat props when the water gets lowered. I hit one a few weeks ago. I decided against buying a stainless prop as my thought was if I hit a rock with a stainless not only would I ruin a $450 prop I would also break the lower unit. What are your thoughts on this?
Not looking to pick up speed Lakeliving, not even interested in buying a SS just curious if it would create more of a problem with damaging the lower unit as my friend is running a 150 with a stainless prop
I've been waiting all summer for mine. (Picked the boat up in May) Dealer said they were on backorder. I just sent him an email asking for status and he said they shipped so should be here in week or so. He said they had 22 on backorder.
