Mount the motor 3 holes up. Do NOT let the dealer dissuade you. This is specific guidance for Boston Whaler hull and the F70 specifically.

Use a quality stainless steel prop. The Yamaha painted stainless or Performance series are good. The PowerTech SCD3 is also well recommended for the F70
Yamaha Performance Series 3-1/4" x 14
PowerTech SCD3 in 16" pitch.
