RE: [Cal_Boats] sliding hatch parts HELP

Hi, All. I did it with a metal piece called C-track. Got mine at Performance Sailing in Annapolis. Am interested in the Alameda stuff. The C-track is a tight fit, but it works on my latest rebuild. Scott, I'll show it to you. Kind of kinky on the install. Align, slide, a screw, align, slide, a screw...

I heard you could get those at this place in Alemeda , CA. It's called Sylvensens (spelling?) . It's the marine shop at Alemeda Marina. Sorry but I haven't made it that far yet. Won't attemp changing those rails till september. Keep me posted on your progress.

The old hatch slliders (plasitc) have cracked off, leaving the sliding portion of my pop-top free to "take a tumble." Does anyone know of a source of tracks/sliders for companionway hatches? If the tracks are different, I don't mind installing new, so I'm not worried about matching the original track. I have the pop-top off the boat in my basement while i install the new deck core and beam, so I figured it was a good time as any to do these repairs. Your assistance is appreciated, Scott S.

Thanks Charlie! Mike Miller was working with someone to fabricate new composite sliders, but has had limited success. I would love to see what you used. Thanks!
