Is there a number assocated with the plastic slides for the main luff and foot?

I believe 3/4 width flat sail slide is the right one. Try these. But If you are at the boat, measure the width of the slide (horizontal across the slide as it sits in the mast slot) to be sure. Could be 5/8 or 7/8 as I am not at the boat but I reckon 3/4.

Good luck.

Are your slides the flat type or the ones that the round barrel? Measure carefully. A good source for part numbers is Bainbridge. Most retailers buy from them. Replace all of your slides at the same time, and get a couple for spare.

Och aye, I done you wrong. The slides for our mail are 7/8 width. All along I was bumming out about not being at the boat to know for sure when I realized the mainsail was down below in my basement! These are the slides that should work.

Chris,

The Spartan spar page shows 3/4 inch slides for the CD33 Boom and 15/16 for the mast slides.
Maybe both 3/4 and 7/8 will work though.
Here is a link to the Rigrite Spartan spar page...
