We broke ours
We had a guest on our boat that gave it an extra pump or two and broke ours. To replace it, we had to cut a hole through the side of the trunk but have now filled the hole with a well-siliconed bolt with large washers so if it should happen again, it will be a snap to replace. As a precaution, I am going to make spacer to put around the shaft that will stop the ram from going beyond the point where the keel is all the way up. In the meantime, I'm storing the handle underneath the cover so whoever might use it can look directly at the stop. (We have different skippers & crews that sail the boat so that showing someone exactly what to look for through the slot won't cut it. It is also hard to see into the slot on a bright sunny day.)
