I broke my cable 2 time then I got smart & put some white grease on the slid pin & all moving parts.

First thing I do with my new trolling motor is replace the rope with a metal cable, using the same handle, etc... If that snaps, you got a real problem! (Gee, Russ... if I knew someone in the fastener industry that wanted to partner with an ex-metal shop teacher to go into the replacement trolling motor cord business... !

Yeah I know. I'm kinda partial to the Aggies and the Horned Toads, but what the heck.

The scariest part is the guy is wearing a Texas Aggies cap. But the tool does look like a good idea.

Looks like a tool that will work, more important your post is a reminder that I need to replace my back-up pull rope.

I happened to find this devise for Motorguide TMs. Having owned one (the 1st and definitely the last one ), I can see where this might be helpful when you break the recovery rope. This will happen, count on it!
