>Someone on the list commented a few
weeks ago about the quality of Titan winch handles and at the time I could only
say that the Titan I have used for many years has work very well: strong,
reliable
locking mechanism and not too bulky and no noticeable flex under load.
But I have 2 Titans on board, one that I had never used until today, a red
handle and it is completely different than my reliable blue Titan winch handle.
Construction is totally different. I now view the red one as junk
and a safety hazard to boot. It flexed like you would not believe under
light load and flew out of my hand after which or before which I am not
actually sure things happened so fast, the locking mechanism broke free and the
thing went flying out of my hand, like as if it was spring loaded because it
more or less was. The bottom plastic cove piece fell off during this
event and all I could see inside was some foamed material. If there is a piece
of metal under that foam that runs the length of the handle that piece is very
small and not very stiff. Is this thing a cheap knockoff using the Titan
name or has Titan resorted to making a cheaper junk product. It seems you
need to be careful when buying something with the name Titan on a winch handle.
Have a close look at what you have because they can become flying objects under
loaded circumstances.

>Apparently, the motor starts - so
there is electricity to the starter. Do the indicator lights on the 'dash'
light up? I know on my 2qm, I can turn off the ignition and the engine runs,
but the tach doesn't work, but the lights do work. Start at the back of the
dash - unfortunately if yours is like mine, there are a bunch of wires led into
bundles and some of those don't do anything. You should be able to see the wire
out of the tach.

>>Any
advice appreciated--Tively II is a C& C 32 with a 2qm yanmar. The
tach is no longer registering rpm. Not sure if this is an electrical (ie
loose wire) or whether it simply wore out. Any suggestions on
diagnosing? Second question-- I am going to install a bimini,
, one connection to the coaming on each side. Any thoughts on whether I
have to put a backing plate under the coaming( is there access)? or can I
just screw into the coaming?? Thanks for any suggestions. Dan
