I will keep it short..

I want it to be known that I am very disapointed with the "Accurate" 665 W 2speed, and the "Accurate" service.


New Reel.. 2 Yellowfin Tunas caught and the reel broke (Deck hand free-lined the last yellowfin in). Good Job Josh (Big-E)!

I called "Accurate" and talked to Ally / sent the reel in.

I got the reel back 2 weeks later.

I put the reel on rod and then realized the reel will not retrieve line in high speed and sometimes in low speed.

I call Ally at "Accurate" and I am sending it in again.

Maybe they should call themselves "In-Accurate" or possibly "Un-Dependable".

So did they make good on the repairs a second time?

Traditionally they are very dependable and quality reels.

The 665W 2 speed is a newer model and they may not have all the bugs worked out?

One of the problems was gear alignment. They now put a stronger spring in the shifting mechanism. The main gear also had issues. Now, the main gear made from 17-4 stainless. The pinion gear is already made from this harder steel. Just send it in for the fix. It's free.

17-4PH High Carbon stainless is high dollar stuff... Aircraft Quality metal used for doublers in high stress areas of the wing root and horizontal stabilizer.

Made a lot of repairs on DC-8's and B 727, 737 with 17-4PH and 17-7PH sheet material.. we hand formed annealed and heat treated it.

SORRY FOR THE LONG DELAY IN RESPONDING...

ACCURATE DID THE JOB. THEY FOLLOWED THROUGH AND THE REEL FEELS SOLID TO ME.

THANKS!!
