Dear all, my sailboat is equipped with a Ford Lehman 4D254 and a Velvet transmission 10-13-000-003, 2:1 ratio, 1.5 shaft diameter and 19x13 LH 3 blade propeller. When I turn off the engine and start sailing the shaft keep rotating regardless of the position of shifter, forward, reverse or neutral. Is this a sign of defective transmission, if not then are there a device I could install to immobilize the shaft during sailing.

Many thanks for your input.
