I don't know this shop, but I strongly agree with the direction of the proposed solution. There's nothing "magic" about year, make, model of an outboard and its prop.
A good prop shop will allow you to test multiple props before deciding on which one to purchase. The variable geometry, along with the hydro-dynamic properties of the boat (weight, centerline depth, etc) affect performance parameters.
A simple change of moving the outboard up a hole, or down a hole in its position on the transom ALONE can make a world of difference in how the boat/motor perform.
Good Luck!!! It can be a challenge.
