Yachting Surplus!
Gary:When you said that you tried that! I assume that you mean trying others handles, correct?Try calling these guys, Minney's Surplus. They have more crap in inventory than carter has pills.http://www.minneysyachtsurplus.com/Just tell them what you have. If you find someone in the marina with some of those "very old" winches, I'm pretty sure that their handle would fit.
