I think the feeders are formations with bolt rope. We had on our last boat. This boat uses slugs and the stay in slot when sail is down. You have me thinking though ...

Subject: Stus-List Mainsail pre-feeder? 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 I guess slides are outdated?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.
