Saw this at the Wooden Boat Show yesterday https://www.tidesmarine.com/sailtrack

Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated

Looks like it could be a very good thing Don, particularly if your mast track is a bit sticky and you have trouble dropping the main, with the Polyethylene track it should be very slippery and never needs any maintenance. Not cheap though @ a tad over $AU36/foot.
