Cellar Marine, Yanmar Dealers at porthleven in cornwall are very cheap for props/shafts and free advice. They will spec you a prop.

as I understand it the 3 blade will give you the same thrust as a two blade at 200rpm lower revs which gives you more grunt. There is a marginal loss of sailing speed but we never had any problems with our boat sailing too slow.

I'm afraid you can't make any assumptions about shaft tapers.
