I just put a new 2022 mercury 150 HP and they put a Michigan wheel Apollo 14-1/8" 19RH prop on it.. I find its not getting on plane as fast as the old prop.. what is the best prop to put on this boat. I want the speed , but want her to get on plane at least like she used to.. Help ( yes I know this boat should have a Yamaha.. )

Nah, nothing wrong with Merc - they're excellent engines.
Michigan makes a "decent" prop, but it's not on the same level as Merc's props - or Yamaha's props, for that matter.
But... first we need to know Max RPM at WOT. Although, technically, you shouldn't yet be doing strong hole shots or going WOT. Read your Merc manual for the break-in period.
