[Rhodes22-list] Traveler modifications

[Chris on LBI]

Jeff, thank you for that input. I'll experiment with removing the 
stopper knot and stopping that end of the line instead at the first 
sheave. This will put plenty of slack in the line. If that solves the 
problem, I'll replace the line with a longer one.
Best regards,
Chris
