Sailing with the engine 

stopped 

If the engine is fitted with a Sail 
Drive transmission 

MODEL SP60

when cruising under sail with the 
engine stopped: 

If the blades of the propeller are 
foldable: 

•  Put the throttle lever astern (in 

reverse). The blades are closed 
when the boat moves forward. 
Hydrodynamic resistance crea-
ted by the blades is minimized. 

If the blades of the propeller are not 
foldable: 

•  Put the throttle lever astern (in 

reverse). The propeller does not 
rotate and create hydrodynamic 
resistance. 

•  Put the lever in neutral, the 

propeller rotate and create lower 
hydrodynamic resistance than in 
astern. 

I

 CAUTION  

 Sailing with the engine stop-

ped and the lever in neutral must 
not exceed 6 to 7 hours in a row. 
The propeller can drive the rota-
tion of the shaft and damage the 
transmission. Run the engine for 
15 minutes to lubricate the trans-
mission at least every 6 hours. 

 Whatever the type of propeller 

and transmission, never sail with 
the engine stopped in forward 
gear (in ahead). 

 Under sail, close the seacock 

if the boat is able to reach a 
speed above 8 knots. Water can 
force one’s way through the raw 
water intake and fill the exhaust 
system. Don’t forget to open the 
seacock again before restarting 
the engine.
