| 4108 & Velvet Drive 1:1 ?
My buddy on another dock has the Perkins 4108 and a velvet drive 1:1 with a fixed two blade prop. He has heard conflicting stories as to where he should leave his transmission when he turns off the engine and is sailing (or stopped too I suppose). Would like to know the reasoning behind the answer too.  Forward, Neutral, or Reverse? Should he have a break on the shaft to stop the turning? Thanks in advance for your help. |
