I would like to replace my Finco traveler with a windward sheeting traveler. Can anyone offer a recommendation on a replacement that will work? I have a later version boat with the traveler in a recess in the seats.

I also have a later model.
I took the traveler off last winter and added some half inch hard plastic ( bought at a plastics store for two dollar) so the traveler car clears the seats.
Still the same traveler (Hrken) not a windward one. I don't know if the finco traveler will work.
I can send you some pictures from "special sauce" who has the same set-up as me. Just let me know your e-mail address.

Sorry for the slow response. I would be eager to see your (or anyone else's) traveler set-up. My e-mail address is bveno@cera.com. Many thanks!
