Why not just use one of the Sail Stops (about $7) that fits the mast and the "plate" part is threaded for a bolt. You could get 2 of them and fit a plate to them and adjust to the right size and tighten them in place. Then attach the compass.
Joe McCary Aeolus II West River, MD [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Does anyone know where I can get some aluminum or stainless that will fit into the mast track on my '85? I can cut it to the correct length but the width and thickness needs to match.
