The last time out I noticed some strange behaviour when motoring.
Basically, I got very little drive from the prop until I increased revs
pretty substantially (around 2000rpm) and then it 'caught' and I got normal
speed from the revs, and am able to throttle up or down appropriately. If
I brought the throttle to idle (in gear) at speed, I would have to do the
same thing to get it to 'catch' again. I didn't have time to do more
diagnosis at the end of the trip, but will do so when I head to the boat
this evening pre-race. Reverse worked fine backing out of the slip.
I'm thinking either its a transmission problem, or the propellor (2-blade
flex-o-fold) isn't opening when it should. I'm going to check the shaft
speed in-gear at the dock, which should tell me which. If it turns out to
be propellor, then I'll live with it until the end of the season; if it's
the transmission, does anyone have ideas about where to go next? Gear oil
was changed at the beginning of this season, so that shouldn't be the
issue, but I'll check levels etc. The engine is a Yanmar 3GMF.
Thanks,
Tim
