No mast step problems with the 35 MKII, at least not with mine and she will
be 40 years old in February 2014 

 

33 MKII has some reported problems

The 35-2 is a boat that I just recently fell in love with so of course I've
been doing some window shopping. I may be able to help. You can find a
really good picture of the cockpit in this ad:

To me, it doesn't look like a project worth pursuing. 

I've had a boat with a bridge deck traveler and I've sailed aboard boats
with the traveler forward of the helm and think out of the two locations I
prefer the bridge deck. My 32's traveler is on the cabin top and that's
great for keeping out of the way but it also has it's drawbacks. I do like
my uncluttered cockpit though. My question would almost be the opposite, is
it possible to relocate the traveler to the cabin top on the 35-2? 

 

Was the 35-2 the one with the mast step problems or was that the 33-2?

I'm curious about what benefit you hope to gain by relocating the traveler?

 

Both locations have drawbacks. The bridge deck traveler ruins a good cockpit
seating area and can make sleeping in the cockpit problematic. The traveler
in front of the helm is a knee knocker and makes moving around the cockpit
more difficult. 

 

But either location can be set up to offer easy adjustment from the helm
when single handed, if that is your concern.

Subject: Stus-List 35-2 traveler question

 

There's a 35-2 that I'm looking at buying, and my question  is whether it
would be possible to move the traveler from the bridge deck to just forward
of the helm (the way it is on the 35-1). I haven't been able to find just
the right picture that will show if there is enough room ahead of the helm
pedestal and behind the lazerettes to install a bridge or some kind of
support to mount the traveler.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
