Actually - do. It doesn't work. On a good day, you'll maybe get another 10 minutes of propulsion out of it.

Unless...you can actually fit a 20" prop - I am stuck with 13" max. But most boats in this size range will have that problem. The shaft-angle would have to be too steep to hang a (much) bigger prop.
