Prop vent restrictors

I have a Laser2 22p prop with the square vent holes in it - can you get restrictors for these & if so does anyone have part numbers? I have seen the round hole vents with restrictors & would like to get some for mine if I can.

It is fine when you are ragging it but if I am cruising in company with other slower boats (it is a wooden Stapely Hawk 16' with a 115 straight 6 that I rally with other classic boats, many of which only run at 30 mph) the prop isn't ever hooked up so wastes loads of fuel.

Cheers, Geoff
