crack under Mainsheet traveller
Hi all.

I have a crack under the mainsheet traveller. It opens up to approx 3mm when under tension.

you can also see it from the inside just behind the bolts in the second pictute.

It appears to have already been reinforced with a patch of F'Glass.
I was thinking of getting some 2-3mm stainless plate and having it bent to the shape and then bolting through the hull so that it covers the crack from the edge of the traveller to approx 100mm below the crack. Having over sized washers on the inside.

I was given an estimate of $1,500 over the phone to get it fixed with fiberglass!!

opinions would be appreciated.
