Retractable Ski Pole

Post by gmccoy72 »

All- we have a 2006 220 with a swim deck and a retractable ski pole in the swim deck. The pole needs to be replaced; won’t retract. Took it to our marina and they can’t source the parts. Anyone have a line on one? We’d be grateful.

I was curious. It’s pretty slick , and I’m sure it’s repairable as it obviously has a stop in the tube to hold it up in use.
My have to remove it and see.

Does it bind going Down? That's common. They line it with a plastic I think. My other 220 was a pain. But the guy that bought it used something and it worked like a charm.
I'll post pictures later. Slideracer can make them.

No that won't work.

It binds up and down; the marina left it in the up position which is not favorable.

Well you can always leave it up and rename it the toe stubber. 🤔

You can lube her but be careful as it will make a mess everytime it goes up and down.
