Jeanneau SUN ODYSSEY 44 DS Owner's Manual - Engine
129/150
2. Propeller
- The "360 Docking" system can only be equipped with a fixed ZF brand
propeller or a folding Flex’o’Fold brand propeller.
These are the only two brands which have been approved by ZF and Yanmar
for use in this system, provided that they are of the correct dimensions.
- If the boat has a fixed propeller, this cannot be locked to prevent it from turning
while under sail.
- If the boat has a folding propeller, the engine stopping procedure locks the
propeller shaft for a few seconds after the engine is stopped to allow the
propeller to fold before releasing the shaft.
- However, if the folding propeller starts turning again during a long voyage
under sail you should switch the engine on and start it following the procedure
given below and then stop it and cut the power again so that the shaft locks for
a few seconds and the propeller folds up again.
