What this video covers

The crew of the Lagoon 450 *Parlay Revival* completes an extensive yard period at Port Whangarei Marine Center in New Zealand, involving the replacement of all through-hull fittings, a rebuild of both sail drives, and the installation of a new Maxwell windlass.0:05 After applying foul-free coating to Raymarine and 3D sonar transducers, the crew splashes the vessel and conducts a sea trial to verify the integrity of the hull work and engine performance.1:59 The engines, previously plagued by smoke due to an improperly seated injector pump keyway, run smoothly after the installation of a new pump.12:09 The crew calibrates the new windlass chain counter to 430 millimeters per revolution to ensure accurate scope measurement, opting for manual retrieval over the system's auto-deploy feature to maintain control.17:04 Additionally, the crew replaces a damaged solar panel with a new Victron unit, restoring approximately 400 watts of charging capacity.20:18 Despite a successful splash and sea trial, the crew decides to haul the boat out again for a final, last-minute adjustment before departing for Fiji.20:55
