Default Electric boat prop sizing

Can anyone point me in the right direction to size a prop for an electric boat?

I want to size a prop for a Speed Gem 9TD Cryptonite motor (I figure it puts out about 150-200 watts).
I need high torque, low speed for the boat to pull a payload at only 2-3MPH.

Can anyone suggest what size prop I should begin with or how to analyze this requirement?

Thanks
