Man, what in the World?? So we just got the new premier handle, and I love the feel of the thing, other than the fact that it can double as an anchor, I am super impressed with it. Well the second time out, the thing starts peeling!! Im not sure if the glue just came undone or what, but I was very dissappointed. They are taking it back, and I got another one comming, but I was just curious if this is what I have to expect for the next one comming in, or hopefully I just got a dud. later

I've had mine for 6 plus months and it looks like it did the day I got it. The best handle I've every used. Crazy that you say that it can double as your anchor, cause mine floats just fine.

Lyle: Our crew had the exact same issue with ours. It sunk, and the grip tore off. I am guessing that you have the white and black model, with the soft, thin coating on the handle.

I would say don't worry about it, and then get it warrantied, and try to get an 07, maybe they fixed it...

I've had mine for 6 mos and it's perfect--and it floats! (blue handle)
