[Rhodes22-list] Goodeneck

[Michael D. Weisner]

OK.  First of all, the gooseneck slide is the part that attaches the boom
(or the pop-top) to the mast and permits the boom to rotate (roller reefing)
on the older (non IMF - Inner Mast Furling) design as in the following
pictures:

and in:

The IMF boom attachment is quite different (no roller reefing):

I think that you are asking about the pop-top slider.  Again, there are two
different versions depending on whether you have an IMF mast or a standard
mast.  The standard mast slider fits in the sail track below the boom and
comes in several versions similar to the one below:

The pop-top slider for the IMF mast looks like this:

There are many different configurations and sizes of gooseneck slides as
show on the www.rigrite.com webpage:
http://www.rigrite.com/Spars/SparParts/Gooseneck_slides.html or the
www.dwyermast.com webpage:
https://www.dwyermast.com/items.asp?cat1ID=40&cat1Name=Hardware&familyID=17&
familyName=Goosenecks

As you have been advised, the best source for these items is still General
Boats as they are custom items.
