I changed the original main sheet setup on my boat to be able to trim the main
from behind the binnacle. I don't have a picture but am going to the boat this
pm and will take some.
The original setup required the the main sheet to be cleated on the port side
cabin top.....not convenient for the helmsman to trim. I tossed the original
setup and constructed a new one whereby the main sheet can be brought back to
the helmsman and trimmed with little effort on the cabin top traveler. There
is no need to move the traveler.
I left the traveler lines the same......they can be brought back to the
helmsman.....no need to change them but if there is a better way, I am
interested.

Hello everyone,
I want to set up my 32 to be able to single-hand. Currently, the traveler is
on the coach roof and my wingspan is not large enough to reach the helm and the
mainsheet at the same time
I'm wondering if any other 32 owners have set their boats up to single-hand
and what solutions you've come up with. The most obvious solution seems to be
to move the traveler directly in front of the binnacle a la the 30, but the
t-shaped cockpit seems to pose a challenge for that location. My current
Harken traveler is 4 feet long. I measured the space between the cockpit
settes below the seat lids at under 3 feet. Any ideas?
Thanks,
