Garhauer can probably do a custom configuration for you.

Bruce,

My cam cleats are right at the traveler (which is cabin-top on a C&C32).  I use 
a continuous line that is long enough to bring back to the binnacle.  An 
neighbor convinced me to try it and I would not do anything different – ever.  
It allows me to control the traveler from the helm most of the time.  If I am 
racing and have sufficient crew, I can just drop the “loop” into the 
companionway so a crew member can adjust.

Subject: Stus-List Traveler improvement, C&C 37/40+

Hello all,

The traveler on our '94 C&C 37/40+ is really kind of a pain.  The original unit 
has 4 sheeves with a cam cleat on each side (two sheeves on the sliding 
traveler part, and two mounted in the end caps to the track).

Originally when I got the boat, the line then went to a cheek block mounted to 
the side of the cockpit, and then to a second cam cleat (which seemed to make 
no sense to me).  I removed that block and cam cleat, and at least I can pull 
and lock line without working it through two cam cleats.

The problem is that when the boat was built, teak decking was put in the 
cockpit, raising it up to the bottom of the cam cleat and when seat cushions 
are in place, it makes it difficult to lock the line into the cam cleat.  I 
have tried raising/putting wedges under the cam cleat to get better access 
above the seat cushions, but that increases friction through the first block.

have any of you had similar issues, and what did you do about it?

Thanks for your insights,
