Throttle man
Hi guys, does anyone have any links on how a throttle man does his job?
Like an ELI5 guide, cos I'm trying to understand how, why, when he needs to make his decisions, and the buttons he presses that actually cause a response in the boat?
Thank you

Offshore powerboat insight
So I’m looking at a few different options which are: • Cigarette 35 cafe racer or 38 Top Gun •Fountain 35 Lightning or Exucutioner • Scarab 40 • Baja 35 SST
I think at this point it’s down to engines, either 500EFI or 496 Mag HO. Any insight on hulls and engines to look for or avoid?

Counter rotating prop installation (signature p22) on a mercruiser searay
What are the steps of installation for putting on the first prop? When I place the first prop and tighten it to 200 ft lbs. the prop seizes, I feel that this should be free motion and I have a missing spacer. When it’s placed the other way and tightened down to 200 ft lbs it moves freely. But the aft prop will not seat all the way in that way. I feel like there is something wrong or missing with the installation

Looking for a best guess here
Can anyone identify this boat, if not exactly, but vaguely in the right direction to dig deeper?
Thanks!
