Hmm. That’s a thought. I hadn’t considered mounting it between the seating. It shortens the traveler somewhat, but still might be better than where it currently is. A couple of customer brackets, and backing plates. Does that setup have some sort of attachment to the pedestal guard? It looks like it buts right up against it.
Glen Our traveler is just forward of the binnacle. I think it was a custom factory job. Seems solid but I have no idea if the parts where it is anchored were reenforced or not. https://www.flickr.com/gp/tombuscaglia/923cyW Tom B Tom & Lynn Buscaglia SV Alera C&C 37+/40 Vashon Island WA (206) 463-9200 www.sv-alera.com At 03:19 PM 6/2/2020, you wrote: Message: 1 Date: Tue, 02 Jun 2020 14:56:30 -0400 From: Glen Dickson <glendick...@sympatico.ca> To: <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Stus-List 34+ traveller relocate Message-ID: <44942616-5e97-4557-9862-58d694938...@contoso.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Looking for guidance. Has anyone moved the traveler on a 34+ aft to the binnacle area? The boom is almost 15? long, and the traveler is only 5? from the mast, giving horrible purchase upwind. Looking to move it closer to end boom sheeting, but worried about structural integrity to support the traveler.
