Couple of threads that might get you in the ballpark to start.

Getting prop dialed in is an art, no doubt.  Makes it even tougher w/o knowing what current rpm/speed you're getting w/a X" pitch.  Assuming you bought rig w/o water testing since it doesn't have a prop.  If this is correct, possible to contact prior owner and ask what pitch was installed?  Couple websites below to help....find the engine's spec rpm at WOT...you'll need to know this to dial in pitch.  Prop Gods are well known in my area (West Central Florida).  Mobile prop dealer.  If you're not located in FL then perhaps call and they'll give you a general idea of prop diameter/pitch.

Thank you for your reply. I have single outboard 24 ft long boat.I'm not sure if your boat is similar to mine?
Can you please tell me more. I'm not that good at this.
