One of the nuts (port side)securing the traveler to the transom has come loose. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get a wrench on it? Please email me at shempdowling@yahoo.com thanks

My old c22 had the same problem. On the starboard side I was able to use multiple 1/4" ratchet extensions to reach the bolt and tighten it. The multiple extension give some flexibility. The port side required drilling a 1" hole in the transom (cockpit side)to get an end wrench on the bolt. I then made a small teak plate to cover the hole. That arrangement was a bad idea on Catalina's part!
