Confused on what prop to start with?

I've finally got my eagle tree stuff figured out & working (for the most part). I ordered some props and will start doing some real testing over the next couple of weeks. My set up is boat as is out of the box (no blueprinting), kentec v2 offset rudder, 5.5 bullet connectors on the motor & ESC, and I have EC5 connectors on the batteries running various 4c configurations (series or parallel). None of the props have been balanced or sharpened they are being run as they came. I'm using the stock motor and a SeaKing 180 ESC. Batteries are: 2x4c Turnigy 40-50c 5000mah soft packs & 2x2c Turnigy 5200mah 30-40c hard packs. All 4 packs were new in June.

A couple things I have noted that I did not think much about before getting my eagle tree. The boat pulls the most amps when turning & I was amazed at the amount of speed lost as the packs discharge, this has been especially true when running 1px4c vs running multiple packs 2px4c or 2px2c.

I bought the below props to play with:

Prather 230 -
- So far this has been the fastest at 42.1mph but used 2400mah (2px2c) in about 2 min pulling about 80-90amps maxing at 106. Running on 1px4c pack I only got a 3.5min run (used about 4100mAH)
CFN 38mmx1.4 pitch
CFN 40mmx1.4 pitch
CFN 45mmx1.4 pitch
CFN 47mmx1.4 pitch
-So far 37.2mph running 1px4c high amp draw was 105 avg was 80-90 run time about 4min sucking about 4300mAH
