Re: Stus-List PVC Insert for Cinkel Mast or Boom
Installed the tides track on Triumph in 2000 and went with a loose footed main. Tides track is great - no problems since installed. As mentioned, the sail falls completely down with full battens.

Re: Stus-List PVC Insert for Cinkel Mast or Boom
I struggled with this about 10 years ago. I spent a lot of time chasing leads without much success. I even found someone n the list who had some track. I bought it, but when I got it, it was brittle and unusable. Unfortunately, by now any original track is as brittle as what you have now. The good news is that you can now upgrade to Tides Strong Track and have one of the best upgrades you will ever do to your boat. The sail will go up and down so easily, it will seem as if it is not attached to the mast at all.

Re: Stus-List PVC Insert for Cinkel Mast or Boom
Found this in a forum: "I recently visited a small boat company in Southern Ontario near Niagara Falls that bought up all the remaining stock of Cinkel parts when that company went out of business. Not only were they able to supply me with the things I had on my list, but they took me to their stockroom to show me the extent of their inventory. I was amazed at all the Cinkel stuff they had. If you need a special part for your Cinkel mast or boom, chances are pretty good they will have it. Contact Robert MacLachlan or Helene Taylor at South Shore Yachts in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario L0S 1J0. Their phone is 905-468-4340. You can also find them on the web at www.southshoreyachts.com. By the way, they aren't cheap, but they are nice folks." Our old friend Rob. Dennis C.

Stus-List PVC Insert for Cinkel Mast or Boom
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for the original PVC extrusion that was installed in the C masts/booms? They fit into the slot, and allowed one to use a bolt rope in the foot of the sail, or a bolt rope to be used in the luff of the main sail, and in the foot of the mainsail.
