Good idea, I can configure the pad which has eight directions so I only have to leave out 2 speed settings. Which two speed settings do you use least often ?

Cool, at least I learned something about speed now, I already wondered if being very slow is silent enough or if I better have to stop in order to remain undetected. Same for 8 knots as most economic but I have switched off the limited diesel ayway. I might use 8 knots however if that is also the most environment-friendly speed. That might make up for the oil slicks I leave in the North Sea.
