I have a 2012 200HO on my 24 Grady White. The manual indicates the Full Throttle range at 4500-5800 rpm. The new 200HO for 2014 sets that range at 5250 - 6000 rpm. I am running the 17 pitch Rebel prop and run at 5200 rpm WOT which is the middle of the range for my year. Why the change in WOT rang on the newer engine?

A 15" Rebel may help your performance and the health of your motor, especially if you can raise the motor a couple of holes.
