I don't know what is available in Canada, but any of the marine supply
houses should have something that you can use.
I bought mine from West marine. They were a little long but I was able
to trim them to size. I have heard others who have bought batten blanks
and cut them to size.

or
www.westmarine.com and search for batten.
You may also try some of the web sites for other supply places or the
manufactures of sails.
One idea I heard but am not sure of appeared on a forum I visit
frequently. They went down to the local hardware and bought yard sticks
and cut them to size.

Westerly Tiger mainsail battens missing or broken.
Each batten is plastic and about 35 mm wide by 4mm thick.
Three of them; about one metre long.
Have made some identical battens from Canadian spruce.
Would welcome opinions about these spruce ones being satisfactory?
TIA Terry.
