Default 2400Scr drive upgrade

Hello I have a 97 2400scr with a 5.7l with a bravo 2 2.0gear and 18.75x19p prop. Wel let’s just say I hit something and I need to replace it. I was considering going to a bravo 3. Anyone with thoughts or experience on this. What gear ratio should I go with and prop size. Or is there really no advantage and stick with the same setup. We boat on Lake Erie and right now my top speed was 37 at about 4400rpms. Thank you in advance for any advice.
🙂

Going to the Bravo 3 will be a nice upgrade, less low speed wander, better all around performance. I can’t recommend a prop set though.
