John, I did mine the same as you, but never cut the line in two. It lets me loop it over the binnacle which works great for us. A neighbor told us about the approach and I figured I could always cut the line to make 2 lines if needed NeilFoxFire1982 C&C 32Wort on Creek, MD

I have Harken long throw jam cleats on the cabin top that allows me to snap the line loose like flicking a whip or jam it by pulling down. See arpeggio1984.info web site, under projects. I can look up the jam cleats if you are interested but they look like a regular cleat with an extended higher capture loop..

It's a great place. We used a single line for the traveler such that the loop came all the way back to the binnacle. Kind of like reins for s horse. Works great.

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, Graham S/V Spellbound Cleveland, Ohio 1981 C&C 32
