Here's a pretty cool site re: props. Probably many here have seen this, but it's Michigan Wheel's section on props (How to change pitch and other prop dimensions, etc.).

Nice informational pages. Gives a version of a prop speed equation.

One thing I thought was interesting. It claims an average for slippage of 18%.

That sounded high for some speed numbers I've seen here, but it works out about right for what I've run through with my boat. Actually even as high as 20% !!

Anyway thought the sight would be interesting to all.
