[quote=Dogboy]Have used the J&H handles on various Hobies for decades. I only had one fail the way you described on a beach boat that was roughly 20 years old and probably saw a lot of UV exposure. The good news is that even with that failure, you don’t get dumped in the drink.
If the handle was less than a year old, I would reach out to the seller for a warranty replacement. In my experience, the J&H seem to be very dependable, but maybe some was a batch made with a bad lot of plastic handles.
