Back in May I received a letter from my dealer to inspect the swedge fittings on my 250 to see what type I have. Of course when I inspected them all three proved to be the type that are defective. The dealer said to return the form and I would receive replacement lifelines in due time. Since then my dealer has gone out of business and I have not received the lifelines. Any suggestions on where to go, or has anyone else been notified about this problem?

My boat is way to old for recalls, but maybe try here:

How do you determine that the lifelines are affected? I have a 2005 WK and have not received any correspondence from either my dealer or Catalina.

As soon as I can get to a scanner I will post the diagram they sent me. It shows two types of fittings and how to determine if you have the good ones or the bad ones...
