Rick I had the same problem and was unable to repair or find an "original" replacement. After many trips to WM I was able to replace all components of the traveler/track with components made by Harken. I got the idea from the traveler kit made for small boats (see page 2114 WM catalog). I used some of the same parts in this kit such as the car/control blocks and one of their tracks shown on the same page. I completed the installation by rigging the control lines to blocks and cam cleats on the coaming. Not perfect but it works . Sorry no picture. John

An Open Letter to the listee who posted a notice to sell parts off his "extra" C27, I remember a while back ( a year?) someone was offering lots of parts off of a C27: winches, rails, lots of stuff. I actually contacted you at the time and you responded; but, I decided against buying whatever the part was I wrote you about. In any case, I no longer have your email (and, thus, your address) I am interested in knowing how you ended up from both a clearance, and a financial point-of-view. If you (or, anyone else on the list who has done the same) would contact me off-list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would really appreciate it.
