C&C 29 MkII Traveler and tracks and car blocker

[fogscreen]

Hi everyone,
I am fairly new to sailing and this is my first post in this forum.
We have a family owned C&C 29 MkII and we have a problem with the traveler and tracks and car blocker. The blocker won't stay in place. We are looking to replace it but we can't find the brand and model. Here is a picture, if someone could help with this.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!!

Looks like the traveler in front of the companionway. Long shot..............are there any markings that indicate the traveler manufacturer? Dimensions?

Check for replacement parts from you local or on-line chandlrey, local rigger or on-line rigging parts suppliers like this one: Traveller Systems. If the traveller system is not listed on their site, forward them a sketch or photo of your track with measurements and full details of the part, boat model and year.

Welcome to our merry little band. Nice boat.

Many of the traveler manufacturers put the profiles of their tracks on their websites.

In addition to this fine forum, many of us also participate on forums either specifically for our boats or the builders. You may find an online C&C group, maybe even on Yahoo ro Google or FB, and they would know what hardware your builder usually used. I'd verify by measuring, too.

Good luck.

PS - You might also consider improving your setup with adjustable cars instead of those pins. Check Garhauer, Harken is great but a lot pricier.
