I own a 2004 Beneteau 323. I need a source for a Genoa track end stop. I attach a pic of the part. Thanks for your assistance.

Beneteau 343 Slidell, LA
These are Lewmar Size 1 NTR end stop buffers
I ordered replacements approximately five years ago; Beneteau did not stock them.

I found two sources for replacements & the parts had to be ordered from Lewmar.
Fisheries Supply Inc, Seattle, WA
LEW 25002915
428629: SZ1 NTR Buffer
Fisheries # 428629

Mauri Pro Sailing, Frisco, TX
SZ 1, one piece impact end stop
Mauri Pro #LEW29905105

Cost was $6-8 each
Beware that the genoa tracks and travelers have been redesigned; therefore, these parts may not be available.
If the above vendors can't order, you may try to order directly from Lewmar.
Good Luck. Let me know if they continue to be available.

I googled track end stops and found plenty of resources for what looks like a basic plastic end stop on standard T track. Try the Shaeffer version, it's like 6 or 7 bucks. But Ronstan and others make a similar product. Honestly, it doesn't appear to be any special engineering. In fact, as few big washers and a proper size bolt would do the trick. good luck.
