Tides Marine Track & Slide System The high-performance, low-friction mainsail luff track and slide assembly that is built to handle the increased loads and demands of today’s full-batten mainsails. The 316 stainless slides are hand-polished to a smooth, low-friction finish. They are available in several sizes.

The Tides batten receptacles are offered in two sizes which accept both fl at and round battens. They are
connected to the 316-stainless slides via a 10mm stud and rotate freely when raising or lowering the
main. The Tides system will also work with any competitive batten receptacles using the same 10mm stud configuration.
