Zusammenfassung:	Stand alone decoupling clutch ( 10 ) is used in drive shafts, eg of watercraft. Clutch ( 10 ) is separate from any gearbox, etc, does not change the direction of rotation of the drive shaft, and has a single clutch area which allows slippage at any speed or torque. Electronic control system ( 44 ) controls slippage of the clutch ( 10 ) providing for low speed operation, high energy launches, driveline protection, etc. Slip speed is controlled sensing input shaft speed ( 38 ) and the output propeller speed ( 40 ) and altering hydraulic pressure accordingly on a clutch-compressing piston by opening direct-acting, high flow, electro-hydraulic solenoids ( 36 ).
