I have a 200 merc also and run a 19 Stilletto and honest couldn't be happier with the performance. The boat seems to float over the chop and incredible trim responce, I had to raise mine quite high but it loved it higher - Cav plate about 2 to 2 1/2" above the hull bottom - the last hole increase made a 2mph difference in cruise. Can't imagine a better prop for a 20 with a 200 other than a 17 - my max RPM is 5400/5600 but had to raise it get there but it worked. Heavily loaded alot a 17 may be better as I run light most of the time.
Its very similar to a Mirage+ in design, the dia on a Mirage is 15 1/4" I think and mine its 14 1/4 both are hard to swing for the same pitch, very aggresive.
Yamaha liked them so much they bought the company
I just looked at Hugo's [post as I have the same motor except mine a MA and no bracket - numbers are very close - mine are better at cruise but he needs to move his higher and that will help there, it did mine
