Thanks Ken. I bought a can of SAILKOTE last year here in Ottawa at Valley Marine. I paid $28.99 before PST, GST and Mon Dieu ST. This product works great. I spayed it on the inside of the mast track, the boom track, the sail lugs and the slider track for the hatchway. It made a huge difference. This will be done again in the spring and 2 or 3 time throughout the year.
EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE, VAPOUR HARMFULL, CONTAINER MAY EXPLODE IF HEATED, DIRECT INHALATION MAY BE HARMFULL. POISON.
I just read this off the can, so, parents with small children around, please be careful

Hmmm. Last year I bought some Fast Trac, that was reccommended to me by a fellow sailor here . I found out when I started to look for some, that the company has gone out of business .

Then, I stumbled on some at a marina store, on one of my little sailing excursions . Works great! Thanks for the advice!!

Sail goes up. Sail goes down.

As I was calling around, it was reccommended to use McLube as an alternative. I wonder if McDonalds has rights to anything prefixed with "Mc"
