Travelers > Big Boat Cars

Recirculating Torlon® ball bearings allow Harken Big Boat traveler cars to roll freely under high, nonvertical loads. Cars feature pivoting shackles and accept loads up to 40° from vertical without binding. However, load-carrying ability decreases proportionally to the angle of loading.

The 1928 and 1929 cars feature a stand-up toggle that holds a variety of blocks in an upright position. The 1896 toggle kit can be added to 515 or 558 cars. Big Boat cars will ride on curved tracks, but load-carrying ability decreases proportionally to the tightness of the radius. See page 141 for minimum radii.

Cars accept a variety of control blocks and allow a selection of controls from 1:1 to 6:1. See pages 137 and 138 for couplers and controls.
