Track for mainsheet traveller.

Post by christhemacguy »

I am wanting to add a manual positioning mainsheet traveller to my Typhoon. I need 41 inches of 1" or 1 1/2" aluminum rail. Cars (non-ball-bearing) are available everywhere online but the track, I am not seeing it.

Does anyone have a source?

You can also get 1" and 1 1/2" track at Garhauer Marine.
They are great people to deal with!

Thank you all for that source info.

Defender is news to me. Seems very well priced too!
