Default Gas to electric conversion

Hi,
I recently purchased a 48" Exceed Shallow V boat that I'm putting a Leopard 5692 1340kv motor in, with a 220 Amp Sordfish Pro Esc. I'll be running it with 6s 6500Mah lipos. I am starting with a 58mm prop. Any ideas or suggestions on prop size? Does 58mm sound reasonable. Hull is fairly light. Thanks.

Sounds like a nice project. I've got nothing on prop selection though. Sorry. Just experiment I guess and adjust sizes as necessary to get into sweet spot. Pictures and a running video would be appreciated.
