Title: Shore Line Electric Cord Reel Model RV5036
Post by: Leon Scroggins on August 15, 2019, 10:52:42 PM: It appears the little plastic gear inside the electric cord wheel snapped today. I found some old posts on FMCA where a member of FMCA called: backhoeJ had a bother that made a replacement gear and he was able to sell them for about $25.00. FMCA has removed the post (2012). I understand that Shore Line is out of business. Does anyone know where I can either contact backhoeJ or where I can find that little plastic sprocket without buying a new reel?

This is in the bay of 2005 Beaver Monterey Laguna IV

My problem is it's in California and we're in Washington. We wil not be going down there until October. I have other problems and they are remembering exactly where it is in the storage shed and remembering I wrote this come October. If you still need the gear come October like around the 10th call me @707-217-0903 and remind me I wrote this.

There is apparently a little gear between two big gears on the right side of the reel in the square riveted box. I have not opened it yet but everything I have read indicates, when I do, it will be that small plastic gear.

Is this replacement Shoreline electrical cord reel gear that you were looking for?

But just saw that this item is no longer available....

Also, this is a copy/paste from another site... Might be worth trying to contact BackhoeJ..

“Hi everyone, backhoeJ here . Still supplying gear kits and also have bracket for motor. Gear fits cord reel and water reel. Please feel free to contact me if in need of gear or bracket.
