I just bought a 2003 Mobius LSV and it has a Acme 1161 currently installed. I was given an Acme 537 as part of the deal.

Here are the specs on both, they are very similar.

537 13.50 16.000 0.105 cup 4 1 1/8" LH
1161 13.50 16.000 0.135 cup 4 1 1/8" LH

Which would be better? Mostly cruising and wakeboarding.

Is there a much better choice for me?

Those 2 props are going to perform nearly identical. Id leave the 1161 on. However, if you are running a lot of ballast, then an upgrade would be necessary, something like the 1433, providing a 4 blade is the correct prop anyway.

I run quite a bit with my 1161. See what you get before you try to swap out. Especially with a gate. You might like the prop you have.
