You should be getting at least 6000rpm at full throttle on the 115, otherwise you'll be lugging too much and that is very bad for the engine.
Get the engine height right first, make sure its not too deep in the water, then drop at least 2 prop sizes to a 17 and see how you go. Best advice I can give other than that is to talk to Ken at "the prop gods", tell him the details of the boat and rpm, and he will advise you of what he recommends. They are the gurus.
Cheers
