I just changed over to a Garhauer traveler on my Redwing 35 last year. Sent Guido my traveler and he sent back a traveler that matched my hole pattern exactly. Really like it. High quality hardware. We bought it at Strictly Sail in January and had it back and ready to install in April.

I need to look at my friend’s 29-2 to see what you are referring to, but there should be no real problem.

Call Guido at Garhauer when you order. Tell him what your clearance issues are, and he will make modifications to the standard traveler so it meets your specific needs.

That’s what he did for the traveler on my 38, which has all the issues that have been mentioned for the 29-2. My traveler came with a tall track, drilled to fit the bolt pattern of the OEM traveler, with extended length for the track, and the brackets for the turning blocks and cam cleats customized so I can trim from behind the wheel.

Best part is that Garhauer did not charge for all the modifications. So the complete Garhauer traveler system was less than half the cost of a Harken Windward Sheeting Car alone.

When selecting a new traveler make sure that you’ll be open the cockpit locker after its installed. Garhauer travelers won’t work without modifying to reposition the stbd camcleat.

Garhauer is another option. Another lister figured out a way to have Garhauer modify their MT-1 system to fit the 29-2. The issues were the narrowness of the channel in the bridge deck in which the traveller sits and the need to raise their standard track by 1/4". I went for a variation of his idea (I wanted the cam cleats on the car, the other lister on the coaming). If you're interested I can forward off-list an email thread.
