Race once with the windward sheeting traveler car and you’ll never race without one again. Pull the car above the centerline without releasing the leeward control line. Tack, and the car stays in the same position, ready to be pulled to the new windward side.
Midrange CB traveler cars are built to handle high loads on boats from 27 ft to 34 ft (8 m to 10 m).
The one-piece solid aluminum construction is lightweight and strong. Ball bearings run on machined-aluminum, hardcoat-anodized races for smooth trimming and easing. Stainless steel wire guides keep balls captive when the car is off the track. Shackle/toggle cars have low pivot points to handle nonvertical loads. Purchase car accessories separately to set up a control system.
For a high-performance system, attach Carbo or Black Magic® ball bearing control blocks to stand-up toggle ears, reducing load on the car so bearings don’t bind. Pair with Carbo block end controls for reduced friction and a smooth-running system.
