[C38] Garhauer mainsheet traveler.

[Joseph Launie]

Steve,
    Ours is straight. We sometimes use the dodger so we followed the 
Harken recommendation for a dodger which is 6 to 1 . We have the control 
lines led to rope clutches on either side of the hatch. one person can 
run both sides without moving. I am a Harken fan - all the blocks on the 
boat are Harken and we have used their travelers on this boat and our 
prior boat, an Olson 30. Joe

Although we did have to take it to work and tweak it some in a hydraulic press in order to get it  to match exactly like the old one.   I know straight would have been preferable for trim but figured the extra trimming required is the problem of the mainsheet trimmer and not the captain.  Ours is set up for moving the end control cars all the way to the ends for racing when the dodger is off, and then in towards the centerline to match the holes in the dodger when cruising.

At the end of the traveler track on each side is a stainless pin through the track stopping the car from going off. On top of the pin and end of the track is a hard rubber cap which I pried off. I cannot remove the pins to get the cars off. I have tried just about everything I know. I am thinking of using heat on the pin then tapping them out with vice grips and a hammer. Any suggestions?
