My traverler broke

Post by JC1 »

Bought a 1985 Supercat 19 this winter and took it out for the first time last week and the Main sheet traverler broke off the track. Went to West Marine, West Marine called up Harken and they wanted 165.00 for one. Was wondering if anyone had a used one I could buy. I need a H159. For a 7/8" track.
Thanks Jeff

Jeff,

I think you might want to look at the 214 car instead of the 159. The 159 was used on the 15 & 17, but most of the 19's & 20 had the 214 car. Not sure about priceing as I don't have a Harken Catalog in front of me at the moment.

Matt,

Thank you for your help. I was not sure of the no. I was told by the clerk at West Marine that it was a 219 ( There best guess). Well any way I guess I am looking for a H214 traverler now. If anyone has one they would like to sell me I would appreciate it. I am new to buying marine products but 150.00 sounds alittle steep for this traverler car!
Thanks for your reply.
Jeff
