Jim,

Call Brion's shop for UHMW, or you can also try APS or Svendsen's, depending on which coast you're on. It's wonderful stuff, you'll find uses for it all over your boat. Since you're refurbishing your mast, you might see if you can get some wide (6" or greater) stuff for the front of your mast at deck level. Makes a great sacrificial layer to protect your new paint job from the likes of stainless rings or j-locks.

Aaron
