[Rhodes22-list] traveler lines

[anima]

Bruce,
The traveller lines should be longer.
Mine move all along the length of the traveller and I
use them quite a bit. On the starboard side, the "teeth"
do not hold very well and causes me some moderate
trouble.
Helps for my sailing.
Anne

few inches off center in either direction and less than half the distance to
the end of the traveler bar.  Could you tell me if this is normal?  Assuming
it is not, and that the carriage should be allowed to move the full length
of the bar, does anyone have the required length of line to permit this?  I
know it wouldn't be difficult to measure myself but thought I would ask in
case I visit the store before the boat.  As always, thanks for any help.
