The crew of the Tayana 37 *Nandji - Frothlyfe* hauls the vessel out in Knysna, South Africa, to replace a worn cutlass bearing and address hull maintenance before attempting a passage around the Cape of Good Hope.0:41 The cutlass bearing shows significant play, requiring the removal of the propeller and shaft.1:57 The owner utilizes a Sigma Drive, a flexible coupling that compensates for engine-to-shaft misalignment, to protect the gearbox and engine mounts from vibration.4:44 While on the hard, the crew also removes a damaged rub rail, revealing a section of solid fiberglass that requires repair.19:28 They source a replacement cutlass bearing from a machine shop in Cape Town after an initial supply delay.27:31 Additionally, the crew works with a local rigger to fabricate custom Dyneema soft shackles for the headsail, adopting techniques observed on modern catamarans to reduce weight and hardware bulk.11:12 The project concludes with the installation of the machined bearing and plans for relaunch.29:25 Proper shaft alignment and the use of flexible couplings like the Sigma Drive significantly reduce wear on drivetrain components.
