    PTFE discs are easily obtained, often used in the base of the mast well on lasers to prevent wear.
    I’ve used PTFE spray to good effect for reducing friction raising the fixed centreboard and rudder blades on Musto skiff. But neither have solved the noisy mast I have on my Finn! I might try the candlewax!
