i am hoping someone out there with a mac 22 might be able to measure out how much line is needed for the traveler because my boat doesn't currently have one so im in need of getting it set up.
thank you much

Re: traveler length help on mac 22
Traveler track should be as wide as the cockpit just aft of the companionway over the step. Hope this helps. Fair winds and full Sails....

Re: traveler length help on mac 22
Not really. My set up that I'm looking for is the same that is in the 12 pic on this link

I'm looking the length of that line.
Is that the traveler or do I have the wrong name for it?
Is it the main sheet?
Thanks
Ryan

Re: traveler length help on mac 22
Ryan, Sorry for any confusion. Don't understand exactly what you looking for. A traveler is a mainsheet device mounted mid boom that sheet in and adjusts the main. Maybe you could be more specific. Looked at pics and still don't compute, DUH!! Fair winds and full sails....

Re: traveler length help on mac 22
Thanks. I think it's the mainsheet and a web site that sells line has a length for each line I need. I think I figured it out, I hope.
