Unfortunately, my old boat has a traveller with no way to control the car. There isn't and never has been any blocks or attachments on the car for that. All I can do is ease or trim. The angle of the boom is set by the amount of pressure on the main as the car free slides back and forth. Ya wanna keep yer ass outta the way when it's brisk.
