Reviews

Handle mate

Just purchased and the bottom end is coming a part not glued well or something.

Not Sure yet

I like the comfort of it and the floating ability. Not sure about the twisting of the handle mate when using the pole. Button is a little difficult to find as the handle mate twists. We'll give it some time.

Handle sunk

Nice product but lost two handles it doesn't float for long.

don't store outside

I store my boat handles on the outside of the boat. This means that the Handle Mate PFD is also outside. This also means that in the first year, the PFD disintegrated and was thrown away. Not worth buying unless you store inside.
