Reverse the shift mechanism to stop a boat that is moving forward. This change in direction
will provide a “braking action” and slow the boat.
C A U T I O N
The braking action causes a wake which may wash over the transom and flood the boat if the
vessel is moving too fast. Allow engine RPMs to decrease before shifting into reverse. Also, under
certain conditions, not allowing the RPM’s to reduce before shifting to reverse may cause the
engine(s) to shut down.
