I busted the rudder lift lever on my '07 Revolution. I have the sailing rudder and I think the extra strain eventually broke the lever. The plastic handle and the bolt both busted, also the plastic on the Revo where the handle is connected is deformed. What are my alternatives? I think if I just replace the handle it'll just break again. I don't think it can handle the extra weight of the sailing rudder. Is there a way that my dealer can retrofit the new lift and release levers on my Revo?

Thanks,
Pete

Contact you nearest dealer toll free 1800hobie49 and get a replacement. If you were using a set screw version and your handle wasn't the through-bolt version you should have them get you a new crank / handle assembly

Part # 81035011 (no charge warranty)
