  • As usual, boat life brings its fair share of challenges. And having a main saloon window pop out and also losing a main engine put us in a pickle before having to go get measured for the Panama Canal....
    SV Parlay is a hurricane damaged Lagoon 450 catamaran, which Colin rebuilt with friends and has started sailing around the world. They found bulkhead damage on their catamaran in Panama, so have fixed her up, and are almost ready to cross the Pacific Ocean!!

    Hi Colin, the reason that the Windows is losening is that the Lexan expands and contracts after the temperature. The production has changed, and at the later 450 boats, the Windows at the sides isn’t one but two pieces, then the joint can obtain the movement. I had my Windows cut in two by Lagoon in 2017, and was told that the production had been changed.
    Next time the Windows is losening you should Cut in two….

Glad all was fix in a days work! You guys ROCK!!! NOW GET BACK TO PLAYING AND HAVING FUN. SENDI G GOOD VIBES AND LOVE TO THE WHOLE CREW.

    On the brass cone, there is a minimum dimension as you spoke of, an another measurement to check. I did not see you measuring the height of the brass cone once mated in the metal cone. Yanmar has a minimum wear height dimension for this once the brass cone is seated to the metal gear. This dimension can be affected by the wear on one or both parts. As you know, the tolerances are so temperamental and small, not sure you had accurate instruments to measure them.
    I did both of my Sd50’s with Gidden’s kit as well, a very good solution to help the poor design last longer. However, at the end of the day, the cone clutch is a poor design to transfer torque and power to a propeller. The dimension I had for my brass to cone gears seated, were right close to needing new parts. When my cones start slipping again, and they will, I would need to spend too much money on obsolete drive. So, I’ll be spending my money on installing SD60’s.
    The SD50 is s poor effort by a manufacturer to make an easier serviceable drive, easier to assemble at manufacturing. The design was all about saving money in production and assembly. Yanmar went back to traditional clutch disc assembly with the SD60, the disc can stand years of service before needing replacement. Enjoy your videos, Cheers ⛵️😎

    If anyone is wondering, DOW SIL 795 (or just plain DOW 795 in the USA) is exactly what you should use when bedding fixed portlights (windows) and even works really well on hatches. DOW 795 is what they use to hang large tempered glass panes on large buildings. It is an industrial grade pure silicone, but this is not the stuff you buy for your bathroom sink. It is able to expand or contract up to 50% of its own thickness without breaking the bond, so in layman's terms it can stretch enough to handle extreme shifts from hot to cold and remains flexible but strongly bonded. It sticks like mad so you only get one shot on getting it on right, but you will have leak-free windows for decades. It's not expensive either, surprisingly. It is the ONLY type of silicone you should ever use on a boat and only for bedding windows/hatches.

    Top tip for you Colin ... after you lapped it, put some magic marker on the cone and turn it a few times, see if you can see even contact for high spots, you'll see where the magic marker wore off .. whenever you lap something you need to be able to test how well it lapped in and magic marker is great for that.

    • @MartyDidier
      @MartyDidier Před 2 lety +2

      The Lapping process involves “Charging” the Lapping part (Softer material) with compound. This means embedding the part with small particles (very hard material) that contribute to shape the mating part surface. Realize wiping the surfaces clean with solvent and rag doesn’t dislodge the embedded parts. This means with continued use these particles will continue to scrub the mated part. Color of one of the parts appears to be either brass or copper. The softer the material, the easier it is to embed lapping particles.
      It wasn’t clear to me the function of these parts in the Sail Drive assembly. An explanation might help!
      You could be continuing the Lapping process while using the Sail Drive thus shortening its life!
      It might be thought both parts were turned on a lathe and one steel part even ground. There shouldn’t be any need to Lap the connection.

    Heading to the Panama canal!! I've been watching since just after you bought the 450. What a journey and I cannot imagine the satisfaction you must feel at this point. Great job! Wish I could be a line handler and drink that cheap local beer with you. Cheers!
