[C320-list] Neutral or Reverse

[Quentin Murphy]

Some have said "Neutral or Reverse", but not never "Forward".  Why not?
Does it damage the gearbox or cause the engine to suck in water through the
exhaust or what?

Lots of discussion.  Little data.

Been too windy in the Keys to try to get data (25 gusting 30 is fun sailing
but too inconsistent to get data that will probably differ by decimal
knots).

Numbers, anyone?
