That is all clear, but does not answer my question. I mistakenly left the transmission in Forward and later found a tag saying that if you did this it would damage the transmission. I am trying to figure out if I have damaged it and if so, what the symptoms would be.

I thought that the "take-away" was that with feathering props it is necessary to put in gear ( reverse) in order to feather). Since there is no more turning force on the transmission caused by the prop, it is safe to leave it in reverse while sailing. This is what I do anyhow!
