The crew of the Lagoon 450 *Parlay Revival* encounters a recurring mechanical failure with their Yanmar SD50 saildrives while circumnavigating New Zealand. After hearing a rhythmic knocking sound from the starboard saildrive when engaged in gear, the owner performs a diagnostic sea trial by removing the cone clutch assembly.16:01 With the clutch removed and the propeller spinning freely under sail, the noise ceases, confirming the fault lies within the clutch assembly rather than the propeller or the engine’s flywheel side.17:06 The crew previously addressed a separate electrical failure when a fried start relay prevented the engine from turning over, which they resolved by installing a spare relay.7:42 While anchored in Whangarei, the crew also completes fiberglass repairs on the forepeak and receives donated supplies from a local marine store.3:56 The vessel continues its passage toward Cape Reinga, with the crew training new members on basic sail handling and terminology.10:27 Troubleshooting the saildrive by isolating the clutch assembly allows for a definitive diagnosis without requiring a full haul-out.18:09
