You'll want to use a prop that has pointed tips, and has the trailing edge as close to 90-degrees to the hub as possible... This will throw the water off of the tips of the prop as lift, as opposed to throwing it aft, in the form of thrust.
Rounded tips with a flat trailing edge can work as well, as long as there isn't any spooning or cupping in them.
The Prather series of props, such as the 225 or 230, etc., would do it, as would the carbon props mentioned.
Have fun!
