    Getting back to your original question, the best place to find a propeller is probably a rummage sale or an auction.   Like the old saying goes, “ya never find something when a need it”!   On my 14′ Lone star I have a 10  1/2 x 12  brass propeller.  With a light load it gets about 27mph.  The motor is a 40hp though.   You can put your propeller on the bench hold it down and put a long punch through the shear pin hole.  Apply a twisting pressure if the rubber mounted center section moves more than a little-bit your propeller is spun.  The last prop I had repaired was 45 bucks.  I have heard that it is possible to get new insert (center section) and if you have a big vice and/or a press you can fix them yourself.
