Stop a mainsail from slipping on a racing yacht

In our fleet of Mermaids (13 26ft match classic racing yachts) we have used sugru to prevent the mainsail from slipping down into the track beyond the slot thus making lowering the main difficult.

Without something like sugru in the track at this point it can be a bit of a worry pulling the sail down.

Effectively an inability to turn the "engine" off in a craft which doesn't have breaks.

sugru has fixed the problem for us!
