I am not familiar with the track instructions for a later model 130 Sport, I can tell you for the FlLying Tops on both my 1986 Outrage 18 and my 1989 Outrage 25, exact track lenghts were suppled by Mills.

The absolutley critical location for the aft end of the track is where the slilding leg must be for proper deployment of the top. On mine, the slide has a snap web that snaps onto the aft track end cap, to keep the leg from sliding forward. This MUST be snapped or the top will collapse, with the leg slilding forward. Does that make sense?

The front dimension is the length where the sliding leg must be for storage of the booted top. Here it also has a web strap that snaps into the forward track end cap. This keeps the booted top from working backward while underway or in rough conditions. Does that make sense? Now I suppose the track could be a little longer, which means the slide cannot be locked in place, and in lieu of that, a bunge cord could hold the top both forward and hold it down. But why have unneeded forward track length screwed onto the top of your gunewales? the top can only go so far forward or it would fall off the bow. My point was that the tracks suppied by Mills in my case were exact, for purposes as described. My other point was to be sure your track is at least long enough to allow the top to slide as far forward as you need.
