Determine Track Length

Measure track length from point 1 to point 2. See diagram at left. Use this measurement in two charts to follow.

1. Upper End—10" (254 mm) above black band. Track is longer than sail luff length to allow for stretch as sail ages. Track must not block halyard exit.

2. Lower End, Using 3847, 3848—Bottom of track will be approximately 3/8" (10 mm)

above gooseneck fitting. When installed, track should be as low as possible yet you should still be able to install long headboard cars. Test measurement by using long headboard car. See photo above.

3850, 3851 Endstop Kit—Cut a 93/8" (238 mm) piece from finished end of one

of the 6'91/8" (2.06 m) 3844 tracks. You will

remove this track when loading cars so it can be lower on mast. See page 7, step 11. Drill lower hole for stop. See page 5, step 3.
