Hey John
Try At-Tec hydraulics on Plank road in Sarnia, and there are some more
hydraulic shops around. Every o-ring imaginable is available locally and I
can't imagine it would be more than $10 or$15 for the parts to rebuild it plus
an hour or so of their time.
Lew Townsend did repairs for me several years ago. He did a great job, and
I have had no problems since. Talk with him on the phone, and he'll give
you good advice, and his p;rices are reasonable. He's located in Seattle.

Check with Lew Townsend +12064987282. He's an authorized Navtec service
tech. He did mine last year. I also needed some new hoses which he made.

I had mine rebuilt twice in two years, the second time seems to have worked
(for a year anyway). But if it goes again I'm just going to get a short piece
of stay and a turnbuckle. As a non-racing type (usually) I do not adjust the
backstay anyway (usually).
You might try Southshore yachts,
The piston seals likely need replaced. Take it to a local hydraulic shop to be
'rebuilt' for a few boat bucks and reinstall for another 30 yrs.

My 33 MK II has a Navtec Model IA 7 - 10 back stay adjuster.
I was out today and notic3d the fore stay kept sagging. I would pump the
adjuster to tension it and in a few minutes it would release.
I suspect this is original equipment on a 30 year old boat.
I am wondering if others with this
