Can anybody verify this? We have a Kanzaki KM3P transmission on our Yanmar 3GM30F. We always have in reverse while sailing.
It would be very good to know if this is a roblem!

It depends on your transmission and engine. Yanmar had a bulletin a while back for their engines with Kanzaki transmissions stating that they should always be in neutral when sailing. Damage or wear to the transmission would occur otherwise.
