[quote=klozhald][quote=vinnyvincent]I'm thinking it will cleat/un cleat a lot easier and reduce friction where it wraps around the traveler.
stopper knot for such a small line??? I'm thinking a monkeys fist [/quote]
If you use a synthetic line for the traveler, make sure it has a durable cover. Otherwise you will eat up the line in a season. On most boats sailed hard, the traveler line gets the most wear.
A monkey's fist would be fun. On line that diameter you'd want a three strand one, as a two would be unstable under the kind of load the traveler would put upon it. I'd be tempted to use a half grapevine.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by klozhald on Aug 29, 2013 - 03:08 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
