Neil,
I keep my transmission in reverse after setting my folding prop. This holds the shaft in place. I have heard and read that Yanmar does not recommend using reverse. Perhaps that only applies to the fixed prop, like Joel mentions.

I know this has been discussed before but help me out. With the Universal M-25XPB in Corsair, the manuals said to shift he transmission into reverse after shut down while sailing. Withe the new Yanmar in Grace (C&C 35, Mark III), what is the prevailing wisdom as to transmission selection after shutdown while sailing. I instinctively put the transmission in reverse but can not find any Yanmar documentation as to what they recommend.
