I have a G3 PF165 boat with Yamaha 9.9 4 stroke on it. I know this is a very heavy boat for the motor but anyone suggest prop? Runs about 8 MPH with me and my son.

We fish several lakes that limit motor size to 10 HP
 
Are you trying to get more top speed? What's the factory prop specs? You could try to jump up a pitch, with the risk of running below your o/b's preferred RPM range. Otherwise, the safest thing to do would be a SS prop that matches your factory specs.

More pitch = top speed, fewer RPMs

Less pitch = plane out quicker, higher RPMs
