MacGregor 26 Lake Waccamaw, NC
Trying to upgrade my 1995 26 C. Thinking adding traveler, all lines to cockpit (new halyards, deck organizers, line clutch for main?, cleats....). Looking for recommendations. APS having 25% off sale now.

Any 19-22 mm t-track traveler system should be adequate, but check the manufacturer’s specifications. I’d rig it with 3:1 purchase on the traveler control lines.

Several guys in the Mac forum have done this. I never did 'cause it was just one more thing to trip over in the companionway. It also has to go under the cushions to get any travel.
Having one on the cabin top has been nice.
Have a plan for your lines. On my Mac26S I used a mast plate, blocks and then organizers to divert lines around the poptop. Then clutches on the cabin top.
