Traveler Failure

[Bill Caiazza]

The traveler is on the pedestle. The screw that holds the line to adjust the traveler broke(the head and 1/2 in.). It is the end screw that also holds the stop on the end and the traveler to the pedestle. Also another one of the screws that holds the traveler track to the pedestle will not unscrew. Any ideas?

I had the same problem on my 336. On my boat at least, you have to take the top half of the pedistal off to get to the nyloc nuts that are securing each screw that goes through the traveler track.
