Take the cover off the engine control in

the cockpit and look for a friction adjustment screw. The return spring on most engines will return to idle in the absence of the throttle control. But inspect the full run of control cable you really shouldn't feel a spring resistance like the pedal on your car.

What does Beneteau say

I have the same problem on my Beneteau 323 and its annoying. I just wondered if anybody at Beneteau had any input. I have not contacted them, but its on my to do list.

It's not Beneteau, it's the maker of the wheel

assembly, like Edson or Whitlock. Go to their websites, or look in your onboard manuals, and find the friction adjustment screw that Ross mentioned.
