Not what you asked about, but if you end up doing an upgrade, I suggest Tides Marine Sailtrack System.
https://www.tidesmarine.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=363 I installed this system on my 34 almost two decades ago and it worked great. I now have it on my 42, and I can hoist the main nearly to the top without a winch. It’s a great system.

OK, has any lister seen a mainsail pre-feeder/feeder that goes in a track with slides? Let me clarify so I don't get replies that miss the mark. Touche's mainsail slot has slides, not slugs. A slug is round, slides are "T" shaped. Slugs go into a round slot. Slides go into a "T" shaped slot. Here is a feeder for a slug slot: https://www.mauripro.com/us/product/SPIRFMA.html This is a slide: http://www.nauticexpo.com/prod/allen-brothers/product-29493-218604.html Here is a feeder that attaches to the mast: http://www.apsltd.com/dinghy-sail-feeder-8mm-max-luff-1.html I see lots of mainsail pre-feeders/feeders that go in the round slug slot or attach to the mast across the slot with fasteners but I can't find any that simply go into the "T" shaped slot. I guess slides are outdated? Was kinda wanting a pre-feeder that I could simply put in the slot. May have to get a slug feeder and replace the slug with a flat metal slide. :( Dennis C.
