This does look like a doable project, and anything to make the wife happier about the boat is always a good thing. ;-) I just called TPI, and they are shipping me new track. (FYI, the website price is old, current price is $17 per 5' section.)

You can get metal track similar to the existing plastic track from your local lowe's or Home Depot. Very inexpensive (~$8), and very sturdy. I saw this first on George Hero's boat, Gritz, and shamelessly stole the idea.
Works great.
I also found moisture in the wood rails. I drilled out alot of the really damp wood, and filled with epoxy. Works great.
