[Rhodes22-list] [Rhodes22e-list] New Traveler Modifications - another alternative

[Rick Lange]

Originally, the ends of the control line had stop knots.  I just tied the

lock the traveller in either direction from either side of the cockpit.

After I rig for the season in about a month, I'll try to remember to take a
better picture.
