RE: [Cal_Boats] Re: Traveler Setup on Cal 2-30

Oh. I missed that part. I will try to take a picture of mine tonight. I replaced it with harken components. It was 500 or so a few years ago. I love it.

I don't plan on moving the traveler- I like that it is out of the way. It just needs more purchase. So, I gathered all my extra blocks and jerry rigged a new setup to get to 3:1. Including new lines, total cost= $150. Here is a photo of the port side with the new gear.[URL= http://s1370.photobucket.com/user/rbrasi/media/IMG_0096_zps9c02b4d3.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag257/rbrasi/IMG_0096_zps9c02b4d3.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Great picture and nice job adding the purchase. If you ever want to switch out the traveler for one with ball bearings I would like to point out that Garhauer will make one to your specification. That means they will drill the holes in the same place and bend it to match. I am, however, unclear if they can bend it in both directions so you would have to phone to verify. I got the M-1 which is $400 and am happy with it. It comes 4:1 but I modified mine to be 5:1.
