Honda 50 prop

I have had my new boat (new to me) in the water a few times and now I am looking for a new propeller. The old one had a few dings in it when I bought the boat and I wanted to test the performance before I bought another one. It is 2004 170 fish(side console) with a Honda 50. The propeller is a 10 5/8 x 12 pitch. The current prop seems to let the motor tach just a little too high at WOT (maybe 200 rpm or so). Does anyone else have a Honda 50, and if so what prop are you running? I am thinking about a 13 pitch prop as a replacement.

For what its worth
I have a 170 bass with a 60 hp yamaha 4 stroke. My prop is an aluminum 10 3/8 X 13.
I think I have the wrong pitch since I also believe that I can overrev? the engine.
When I get a second prop I am going with a 14 or 15 pitch prop which should reduce the max rpm. I wish I could test each pitch before I buy.
