    Check your transmission manual for freewheeling details. My Lehmans have
    PRM/Newage transmissions that, accordingly to the manual, are designed for
    extended freewheeling.

    Subject: T&T: prop shaft lock

    what is the best prop shaft lock?
    two monkey wrenches?
    yesterday while being towed across the bay by vessel assist with my dead
    single lehman, i was getting nervous about spinning the transmission with
    the engine down.
    on sailboats we always put the trans in reverse to stop spin while sailing
    with no apparent ill effect over years of sailing

    what do twin engine boats do when running on one engine to stop prop shaft
    spin on the down engine?
