Tim,
When I moved my traveler from cabintop to cockpit, I tried a 6:1 triple.....too
much rope.
I went to a 5:1 Hobie 16 setup, works great. Bought one off fleabay.

Subject: Stus-List mainsheet blocks for 29'
Hi,
I’m in the process of replacing the traveler, mainsheet blocks on my 29’.
Think I still have original equipment and is in the cockpit. Can others
provide me with types of blocks they use or recommendations? I viewed the
Harken site, with recommendation a 6:1 triple block system (hexratchet at the
base). A local sailmaker stated these fail quite often and have a lot of
friction due to the twist. He recommended a 5:1 system.
Can others provide suggested setups? Look forward to guidance.
Thanks,
