I like Defender industries for hardware. But there are lots of sites out there. I use West Marine only when I window shop. Their markup is a sin. Just my 2.35 cents.

I got over it right away the minute I opened the West Marine catalogue and added upt the cost for the track, cars, blocks and sheets. More than the sail. Where are you skippers buying your hardware? Any less expensive than West Marine? Maybe I will just rig the new Genoa as a flat sail to shade the cockpit while on the mooring at Catalina. I really appreciate the great response and advice on rigging my new Genoa. Captain James A.
