CRUISING SPEED
NOTE !
Always consider sailing conditions and load of the boat to
set the cruising speed.
Operating the engine at wide open throttle should be
avoided since it is both uncomfortable and uneconomical.
Note that operating the engine at a too low rpm for a long
period could lead among other things to increased oil
consumption.
Deposits may also form in the injection system if the
engine do not reach its nominal operating temperature
regularly. Run the engine at full throttle regularly in order
to burn off any possible deposits in the fuel system.
MANOEUVRING
WARNING !
Shifting at high speed can damage both the engine and
the transmission and be dangerous for passengers.
CAUTION !
On a twin engine boat, both engines should be started
during reversing manoeuvres to reduce the risk of water
ingress in the stationary engine.
Carry out the following operations for forward / reverse
manoeuvres:
1. Reduce engine speed to idling and, if possible, let the
boat lose most of its speed.
2. Move the control lever to the neutral position and wait
a few seconds.
NEUTRAL
3. Move the control lever into astern. Increase the speed.
