Chaparral Sunesta prop size?

[King on the River]

A friend of mine has a chaparral sunesta 222 (22') deckboat. with volvo power. He is looking to get a SS prop but wants to make sure that he gets the right pitch. Does anyone have an idea on what would be the best all around pitch and size for that application. I believe it has 280 horse. 4,065 pounds of weight and a 16 deg deadrise.
Thanks,

Well, I guess we need to know what he has on there right now and what the WOT rpm is??

Is it a Duo Prop?

No not dou prop. I tried to talk him into it but the salesman talked him out of it. I don't know the current pitch it is stock. and also don't know the rpms, will have to find out when he takes out again. Hoping to get new prop before then, and was hoping someone else with the same rig could help out.
