ABSTRACT:
A system of interdependent stoppers for the two tackles which control the position of a mainsail traveler car moving along a trackway, mounted transversally across a sailboat. It comprises two pivoting block cleats, one at each end of the two tackles controlling the car, mechanically interconnected in order to establish an angular one to one correspondence between them. The system is usable either for stoppers mounted on the traveler car or at trackway ends and is responsive to the angular position of the fall to which the power is applied. The two stoppers are always in the same state: either cleated or in free running position.
