Na it's more to do with grease and grime up inside the internal round section the lugs slide in. Even when I pushed the test disk up it was intermittent but cleaned out after a few runs up and down. seems a good sytem . It's my Christmas pressie last year. Was the silent wind gen.
Ordered my Tides marine track system. $1940.00 hope to get it for Christmas!
Next year I will microswade my upholstery in white and paint out some of the timber As well as adding a port side Silent wind generator.
I might have stolen your wind gen blades South Ace 
I'm still waiting for the rigger to fit the mast head before I can do any more on the mast . So Ill work on getting her back in the water before Xmas and then start hassling the rigger . Bought a airman speed and temp sensor kit which Ill fit at the weekend ,Ill just leave the blank in most of the time.
to Tides marine. 
Hopefully without a walking frame or oxygen tank like some of the bands I've seen lately . I think some of them should have retired gracefully
I tried raising my main yesterday for the first time since ive done my mast work. Pleased to say i can pull 9 m of sail up with 1 hand. Lubed track. New masthead sheaves. New exit sheaves(just those ronstan plates ) changed topping lift block with was fouling the main halyard. A massive difference all made possible by having the mast down.happy days
tides marine slide system arrived this arvo.
After a few dry spots we dragged the last quarter up with a slide in the track with a the topping lift and me in the boson chair stopping two inches below the main halyard sheave And just enough at the tack to be fastened below the gate. 47 foot to be exact! Thank good I didn't have to pull it back down to cut the top section again to refit! She goes up like butter and comes down like lightning! nearly time to go saling!
Didn't see the moon until I zoomed To the pic neither did I see it with the binoculars !
Webbing to my sail is a problem can take the main to get the slides attached but it's a big job and don't really want to have to remove battens. I'm thinking Velcro webbing or stick with the little shackles I Fitted? any solutions?
