Trying to decide if replacing the mast/sail hoops on my 23′ MengerCat with a more convential slide track would make raising the sail any easier. I realize the way it is rigged now is more traditional but I was wondering if it might make it easier for this senior citizen. Thanks as always for the great information. Tom

Not a good idea. You have the jaws of your gaff that will be pushing into the sail track you want to install. What you need is a lubricant like teflon or Sail Kote on your mast and hoops. The sail will go up easier and come down faster. If you still have trouble, replace your halyard blocks with Harken ball bearing blocks. Bigger diameter blocks roll easier.
