I recently bought a 75 19' Kona w/a 76 150 mercury.It runs about 43mph @ 5600rpm's trim up w/a 13 3/4 x 17prop ,it has a real good hole shot,will any other props give me any more speed and still keep the hole shot.

Props are funny like that. The more pitch the less hole shot but better top end. You'll find that YOU will like but it take alot of testing with different ones to do so.

Depends on the prop you have now. Do you know what type it is?
If its alluminum then of the bat its a yes.

The hole shot trade may not be too bad either. You might be willing to lose a little for a little more speed. Then there are the shifting props that do both. Low pitch and high pitch.
