I don't think the slow idle switch will get you where you want to be. I have a 38 open with 480CE Cummins and with both engines in gear I am over 5 mph at the normal 600 rpm idle. Faster then you can run in most canals. The slow idle switch drops the idle speed by 50 rpm to 550 rpm. Even when I do that with one engine in gear I am still over 2 mph throwing a small wake at the point. I would be surprised if the 42 with that power would be able to get under 4 mph with trolling valves. You could always have the sales representative prove what he is saying is true.

Sorry, I meant to say that I would be surprised if you could "get under 4 mph WITHOUT trolling" valves in my last post
