Thanks for the advice. I will go with a longer track. I wasn't looking forward to setting and tightening all the nuts and screws through the beam on a longer track. Oh well, it'll give me something to do.

Rolf, if I make to Scandinavia next summer, maybe I could meet you and go sailing. My wife is from Helsinki and we are planning to spend some time in Finland and go to Norway (Lille Arno-Indre Naro- Namdalen) where my Grandfather was born and was a fisherman.
