Really want to upgrade our OEM 2 blade prop to a 3 blade. Nothing fancy or folding...just a little more thrust. Not sure what are the options safely compatible with our 2002 Hunter. Any info appreciated

We upgraded to a 3 bladed prop many years ago and didn't notice any increase in thrust, speed, reversing, or etc. at the time. However, I did see a major decrease in vibration which is all I was really after. The 2 bladed prop had been balanced the previous year but was no match for the 3 blader for smooth operation. Well worth the investment.

I did change from a 3 blade to a 3 blade Flex o Fold $$$$$$ prop and big improvement over the standard 3 blade with sailing,motoring and reverse too.
But I think I had the wrong pitch on the standard prop that came with the boat,
look in the search part of this forum under prop's and has plenty of info on this subject.
