Its boat show season.  Time to buy the old girl some presents!
Thinking that its time to get some standup blocks for the genoa track.
The track on Constance is 1-1/4" wide and 3/16" thick.  Guessing
that we all had the same track when the boats were built.

There are lots of choices

Schaefer $225 on sale at Fawcett's

Schaefer $210 on sale at APS

Garhauer $70 regular price?
https://garhauermarine.com/catalog_process.cfm?cid=28

Could use regular single blocks and attached to the sliders on the track.
That's what I have now. Selden PBB 60mm blocks.  They have worked well for
me.  But they do flop outboard and allow the line to get into a bit of a
muck.

Any thoughts/recommendations about standup blocks for the genoa?
