Any local prop shop or marina on the water that you boat in should be able to help you match the correct prop to your boat.  Most of the shops in our area will allow you to test drive your boat with several different props to enable you to choose the one that is best for you.  

WOT should be from 4200 to 4600 RPM.   You should choose a prop that revs in that range with the load  that you will  carry most of the time.   If you test with very heavy loads,  be careful not to exceed the max RPM with a very light load in the boat.
