Merc throttle operator questions (twin engine)

[mummaiv]

When running how many use the single lever option compared to using both?

I use it 100% of the time, even in the harbor. The only time I don't use it is just before I get to the dock, I pull it back to neutral and shut off the single lever feature.

It's the single best feature on the Mercury drive by wire system.

i've used it a few times, kinda forgot i had it.. it is a nice feature..

i think i stopped using when it didn't seem to work with the autopilot and i use the autopilot a lot... i'll try it again...

i'm more wondering if people use the sync feature in a twin setup... i have read that in a trip engine setup, using sync may decrease your fuel economy.. is this true with twins?

hey you both have twin 300's ? what kinda props are you using? i'm currently using mirage 21's.. thinking of trying the enertia 19 or tempest 19's for better economy/docking handling...
