Finally I want to re-rig my traveller. Phil Root's "fixed triangle with a hook" looks simple and effective. Has anyone (maybe Phil himself) got advice on, or improvements for installing the fixed triangle? I am anxious to know "what kind of hook? Why not a jam cleat, or some other effective simple device? Mounted...inside the coaming? to a block on the floor?
And that made me think of the spinnaker halyard. Is the halyard jam cleat fixed to a block that has been glued, or glasssed in to the hull? How was it done?
