Try doing a google search on "Fico" traveller. You may be able to find a picture of what you have. I can't picture what you have from your description, but a lot of C&Cs were equipped with Fico travellers, including mine.

Beautiful sail down on Saturday. Front rolled through Saturday night and tested my anchor and ground tackle at the anchorage near Ida Lewis Yacht club. All worked fine, thank you. Cozy first ever evening on the boat with the admiral. Very enjoyable considering the stark accommodations. Learned a few things about life aboard the new to us 33 footer. Only real issue was the traveler broke over-night. The broken component is a stainless steel eye bolt in the center of the car that is used to attach the mainsheet block. It goes through the car and is secured by a nut on the bottom. I am not sure this is original design or hardware. Can't find a traveler car on the interwebs that looks anything like mine. I assumed it was Harken as everything else on the boat is. It is a very simple 4:1 arrangement with 8 captive rollers that ride on the track. The hole that the eyebolt goes through looks like it was threaded once. I ended up using a 5/16 stainless eye bolt that was a close enough fit but it is definitely a temporary solution. Does anyone have a source that might have the correct components or am I looking at a new traveler track, ends, blocks and car? 1974 33 ¾ tonner Portsmouth, RI bstrat...@falconnect.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com
