A backdown test can tell you a lot about what’s happening in the engine room. In this Trawler Buying Tip, Jeff Merrill explains how shifting from forward to neutral to reverse at very low speed can help evaluate the transmission and engine mounts. With a qualified person observing in the engine room, you can watch how the engine moves under load and look for signs that the mounts may need attention. It’s another useful check to consider when evaluating a trawler or conducting a sea trial. Follow JMYS for more practical Trawler Buying Tips from Certified Professional Yacht Broker Jeff Merrill.
