I see there are many people who have installed the tracks.
Can anyone tell me what tracks and the sizes used successfully on the 411 ?

Are you referring to a foil on the forestay i.e. furling headsail arrangement?
Here's the current version of what I have on Rubato - Harken split drum....

You require 32mm T Tracks with heavy duty Genoa cars. The tracks will require through bolting so you will need access to the underside of the deck.

Aren't there aluminum backing plates for the genoa tracks on the 411 like the 400? if so, you only need to drill and tap the holes - no need for nuts from the underside.

Sorry for the delay in response.
Yes. It's the tracks to replace the self tacker and give us some control in heavier conditions. |
