Have two 16's fixing up for the youngsters to race. Most of the hard part is done and getting close to finishing them off. The sheeting systems are next (hence all the money) and my question is on the jib system.

I had decided to go for the jib sheet cleat on the car (ouch!) on both boats. Each boat had the sheet swivel cleat mod (inboard of the track) and figured it was easy to use these as the traveler car cleats. One comment at the Mid-Americas was "You won't like that setup". I've used the lance cleats and don't like that setup, although it's adequate. I saw one boat with a smaller jaw cleat at each corner casting and that seems viable. I never thought to ask the gentlemen why we wouldn't like the swivel cleats (I respect his opinion).

What are the pros and cons of various traveler control (for racing), knowing the lance cleats (to me anyway) are difficult to use. Don't know, position and angle may have been wrong. Comments?
