Repairing traveler track?
I’m refitting a Crowther cat and the traveler track has some wear and tear. I debating reusing or replacing it. Is it possible to fix the areas with wear and have the track re anodized?

I replaced mine. I sent the original to Garhauer Marine Hardware -19077136 and they made me an exact replica including manufacturing 9 inch bolts for it.

That is a LONG track? Is it a Fico? Try Holland Marine in Toronto
