[C320-list] Removing Traveler

[drshoffner at aol.com]

Jim,
 
I recently replaced my old cracked companionway cover as well.  You can do it without removing the traveler track.  I had to do a little remodeling of the lip around the deck in order for the new cover to slide freely on it's track.  The whole job took about an hour.

Subject: [C320-list] Removing Traveler


Has anyone had sucess in removing the traveler track. I tried to take it  off 
several years ago to replace the line organizers with a newer version so  
that alll the sheves would turn freely. At that time I had no luck in geting the  

4 main bolts loose ( the ones that go thru the deck) to be able to remove it. 
So  I gave up and haven't tried since.
 
Well, It seems my plexiglass (1995 Hull) sliding hatch wanted me to try  
again, so it decided to crack. Now I need to get the traveler track off so I can  

remove the other cover which is under it, in order to replace the hatch.
 
Any sugesstions would be appreciated. For those who did get it off what  size 
sledge hammer did it take 5 or 10 Lbs.
 
 
Thanks,
