I have a Hunter 27X. It was a limited production boat. The throttle controller uses a removable winch handle. It's frozen up. Can anyone identify the model or brand?

WOW !

You learn something new every day. Never seen anything like it.

I can imagine it falling out of the receptacle after a period of running and you have to stop in a hurry. WHERE THE #%@$^&*! IS THE THROTTLE HANDLE :yikes: !

Pull the assembly off and see what is causing it to freeze. Maybe you can save yourself $225.

Use a locking winch handle?

I'd pull it apart and clean and lubricate it. These are really simple devices. Check the cables, the problem may be the cables and not the shifter. Cables are about $50 each at overpriced marine stores and less at other stores.
