Ok so above 4200 at wot is not necessarily a must. Nonetheless when I dock I always have to reverse to break, it seems to be going a tick too fast, I of course got used to it like this and adrift to the dock in neutral, and that because there is nobody there.
When I was in Laughlin to go to the annual gathering of friends from to Mohave lake different story. Hundreds of boats everywhere in the marina. So drifting there is a nono.
Think about what you just asked.............
If your in gear at idle speed is to high then it needs to be adjusted lower it. I run my boat idle in gear at about 625-650 rpm. I have no issues.
Did you confirm idle rpm when you jumped the ignition base timing wires? You cannot adjust idle rpm off a timing light when the Base mode is not jumped. The timing varies so the idle looks like your video of it...............all over the place.................
"""I always have to reverse to break"""......................I would suggest you need more experience/training in operating a boat! Not going to respond to this any other way!
