SO 40 Genoa Traveler track

[poemaintahiti]

Iaorana from Tahiti

I just bought a used SO 40, we are Tahitians beginner sailors. most of our hardware were stolen, even our mainsail before we bought it. We are trying to get the puzzle back together and it’s not Easy to guess what type/reference I need to look for.
First question would be about the Genoa traveling track. The car were stolen, does anyone have any info about the car I car buy to replace it ? Also we have a zspar aluminium mast and we have no slider. Anyone know which one would fit perfectly our mast? That’s the beginning thank you for your help Mauruuru from Tahiti.

Most of the Jeanneau tracks are Harken, but I would suggest you start with Gerhauer Marine in the USA. You’ll have the measure the track width and profile and go from there. Their website is link

You will find that any Genoa car to suit a T track 32mm (1 1/4'')with slides,   will fit  provided the track has not been changed at any time.

I change mine over to a Garhauer E-Z glide adjustable set up

Hello Tafika do you have any information about the main sail sliders ? Which ones do you have on your mast? I have a Zspar mast aluminium and having a hard time finding something that would fit. Thank you for the great haha yet marine address, they have cheaper blocks than the one found on westmarine and custom made traveler !!! Mauruuru
