The Mainsail/ Boom "Carrier(?)" you know that black thingie the furling line for the IMF goes through came apart.  The bolts that attach the slider to the rings surrounding the furling tube stripped out.  Since I will have to have the 2 rings machined and threaded, I figured I would have them done in aluminum instead of the  original material.  Any thoughts? I also may replace the Plunger Pin.  None of the ones from McMaster Carr seem to be a direct replacement. I wouldn't mind if the pin that goes into the mast was a bit longer.- The pin disengaged accidentally at one point. Any thoughts on that?
