My solution was a little more brute force today. I used Scott's A-frame and prepped the boat to drop the mast. The problem was the 15-20 kt gusts from time to time today. Once the mast was down, I sanded the poprivets smooth (they held up fine) and tried the slider a few times - no problemo!!!
The whole job took me about 7 hours including running the genoa up the furler and setting the sail up. Tomorrow I'd bend on the main and go sailing. I've got to catch up with Scott!

About time, I thought you would never stop messing around...

Sails are on - furler is fully restored - forestay is intact - masttop VHF antenna is working - LED anchor light is working. I'm back in the game and better than ever!
