Eskimo Replacement Hub
« on: Feb 21, 2018, 06:20 AM »
I had an overzealous helper the other day and am now in need of a replacement hub for my Esikmo Fatfish 767 unfortunately it looks like the Eskimo parts section is sold out.  Does anyone have any ideas where else you can find replacement parts?  I checked on Amazon and it's also sold out there...

Appreciate the info!

Give MoreOutdoor4u.com a try, it's Eskimo's  parent company's sales site and they sell Eskimo parts.  Here's a link to it"

Thanks for sending the link - doesn't look like they have replacement parts either.

It's the actual hub in the middle of the top.  Two of the four slots that the poles go through were mushroomed out of shape so that the ball end of the pole pushes up out of the top when the canopy is being setup or taken down.

There was an early issue with the poles popping out of the hubs. Eskimo provided inserts that fit into the hubs. I’ve attached a photo. Perhaps those remain available and Will solve your problem

Not yet - it looks like I have to call to get the part as you can't just order it online for some reason.  Out season is shot so my urgency has decreased :(

The one I showed you is an extra that I’ve carried as insurance against another failure. I obtained it by sending an email to the company’s “contact us” information on their website. Since it’s an extra that I haven’t needed, I can send it to you if you are unsuccessful getting one (or two) yourself.  Shoot me a pm with your address if you want it. Our season is done as well. My gear is dried and stored for the summer. Kayak fishing is on deck!

i'd buy a few hubs to offset the shipping costs. if one broke the others may not be far behind. maybe shop for their ice anchors.
