I also worked with Guido. I replaced my traveler this spring. I sent them my old track and they used it as a drill template, so installation was easy with no new holes to drill. The Garhauer cars are low friction, and high quality. With the increased mechanical advantage and continuous line it was a major improvement for modest sum.

Or better yet, talking to him about replacing the traveller. Their new cars are supposedly really good.

You might consider talking to Guido or Mark at Garhauer Marine. They may be able to make you a new and better car for a reasonable price. I'm assuming there are sheaves on the ends of the car? How much room is between the sheaves? Enough to install a padeye with two fasteners? That would hold up to the loads better than a single point attachment system. Your description doesn't sound like a Harken car. More like a Merriman or a Schaefer. Dennis C.

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 _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
