Re: Charging batteries with engine while sailing

I apoligize for my mistake...I think the Kanzaki transmissions are ok to run while in neutral when the engine is not running. Its the Hurth zr which is not.

I have always sailed with it in reverse because i dont like it spinning or the rumbling noise and worried about the tyranmission being properly lubed.. Apparently I should only sail with it in neutral.

Live and learn
