Bill, my apologies for the delay in replying to your question. I was bringing the boat to Toronto from Sout Haven MI, nearly 900 miles! Apart from finding a lot of leaks and difficulty getting the autopilot to work (fixed by keeping it isolated from the starter motor use) the boat performed very well. It is now out of the water with much work to be done before I take it south in the fall. It is a 1982 model. Re your question on the traveller, I am putting separate block systems for each side, with cam cleats, to provide more lateral control over the boom. I may also leave the mainsheet on a separate block in line with the winch, to control twist. David Marrison
