It would help if you posted a picture of or link to what you're talking about. Lots of boats have power shades/biminis/etc.

Sounds like the electronics are limiting the engine rpm due to a fault. Limp mode. So you need to find what is causing the fault light...

Many thsnks. Yes I'd be v grateful if you could please PM it. Yup I will need to avoid cruise ship days. Think they are ok for my...
