On flush-deck boats, face cleats down the length of the track. On boats with seat backs, angle the cleats forward or aft. Windward Sheeting: The windward sheeting traveler lets crew 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. 2:1 Remote Cleat: Use this 2:1 system on flush-deck boats like the J/24 where crew sit outboard of the traveler and loads are nearly vertical. Standard 3:1: This system, with cleats on the track, is used on boats under 10.7 m (35'). Standard 4:1: This 4:1 system is used on moderately-sized cruising and racing boats. Control blocks and cleats mount on track ends. 2:1 with Dedicated Winch: Install this system on big boats when winches are used to adjust the traveler. Standard boat length*: Small Boat: 6.7 - 8.5 m (22 - 28') Midrange: 8.8 - 10.4 m (29 - 34') Big Boat: 10.7 - 12.8 m (35 - 42') *Refer to Ordering Mainsail Travelers for in-depth specifications by boat type.
