Thank you Michael!
You answered my question. I got a PDF file showing all reinforcements on the 325, What I was wondering was if the yard just tapered the reinforcement and bolted the traveller just to that. Now I now they didnīt. On the treveller there are either bolt holes or a triangular slot as you describe. What they have done is to drill holes through the reinforcement and slided the bolt in to the triangular slot (the bolts can slide but not turn) and then they have nuts and washers underneath the reinforcement. The wooden block is just there to cover the holes (or the cutout) in the inliner. Even if it has been suggested on the 320 pages and by Bruno that tappering the reinforcement would probably hold the traveller. I will not be the first to try,,, I rather have some nicely covered holes in my inliner instead. Cheers! Magnus P.S Michael! If you find the time and are willing to make the effort, I would love if you can take a picture of the inliner underneath the traveller on the starboard side ( in the rear salon). So I can se how they have covered it,,,

Well I did it anyway...
I went for a low beam Rutgersson traveller reinforced with a 30X50mm teak beam and tapered on the aluminum reinforcement below the seats. It looks qiute ok. and I was convinced by both Hanse, my rigger and my fateher inlaw that this will hold. Canīt wait to go out and try it out. Will buy a new jib and try out a so called 3D sheeting for that... Here is a pic (I have plugged the holes for the old pad eye now with teak plugs) Cheers!

Dear Sylvie, I am just configuring my hanse 325 before signing up purchase contract with dealer. I noticed fine steering wheel on pic of your yacht. Looks like carbon or the like. Can you provide me information what is this wheel? Thanks in advance. |

Hi Michael!
It goes by the name of inf**ker!!!! Google it and you`ll see (if you dare) Instead of a traditional traveller you install blocks to do barberhaul in and out resp. up and down haul. Tha gives you sheeting in several directions eg. 3 D I will post pictures in the spring when Iīm done. //M

Hello Michael, thanks for reply and let me apologize for wrong naming in my previous message. What is a diameter of the wheel? PS Do you know anyone at forum who has H 325 with short keel? |
