Re: Engage transmission while sailing

Rum & Tonic All Messages By This Member #127 开云体育 Hi Stu, Have you read your maxprop manual, mine says to turn the engine off in forward while doing a speed of 3-4 knots. Then put it into neutral. You shaft should not spin, or spin very slowly because the prop is feathered. On occasion, mine does not feather, so with the engine off, I shift to reverse then back to neutral. Hope this help. BTW, I have had my maxprop since 1998. Cheers, Marlena toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Mar 14, 2022, at 1:40 PM, SSTECKER <stustecker@...> wrote: ?
