You're welcome to the drawing. The original file, which had additional drawings and instructions was corrupted in the 6 or 7 years since I made the design. I do have an extra set that I had made at the time. I don’t think I”ll need them as the originals are in top shape after 6 years of use - I would sell them for $100.
I’ll take a couple of photos later today or tomorrow and get those to you as well.

>> Once the two pieces were fabricated, I installed them onto the split-backstay, then drilled a 1/4” hole through the assembly and used a 1/4” ‘Fast-Pin’ t keep it in place.  Its really easy to pull the fast-pin and swing one side out of the way of the motor, or the stern ladder on the other side. This makes it really convenient for boarding folks from astern (the ladder)  or working on the motor.

This will make movement easier but it will never be fast and never be the tool you use to de-power quickly, the main sheet is best for that. What I like best about Stan’s invention is the ability to pull the pins from the ends and swing the traveler out of the way or take it off completely in seconds. I designed the ends and had them fabricated out of Delrin at a local machine shop.  If anyone is interested I can probably dig out the drawing.
