Sailing
When sailing, set the control lever to astern if a folding
propeller is fitted.
Is a fixed propeller is fitted the control lever should be
set in neutral or reverse. When using a fixed propeller
and sailing with the control lever set to reverse the
speed is slowed down though less noise is being
made.
Cruising Speed
Avoid operations at full throttle for best fuel economy.
We recommend a cruising speed that is around
500-1000 rpm below the maximum rpm at top speed
(full throttle).
Depending on the type of hull, choice of propeller, load
and sea state etc., maximum revolutions at top speed
may vary, but should be within the full throttle range;
refer to the Engines section.
