Dwight, We do end-for-end gybes. The aluminum pole works, but we got a new carbon pole this spring that makes it much easier. I'd still like to get my crew to do dip pole gybes, just to have another skill in their pocket for windy days.

I set my 35 MKII up for end for end jibes but the old spin pole is quite a good size piece of aluminium but the jibe is doable if the topping lift is set right and if the helmsman steers DDW until the pole is set for the new jibe...that said the spinnakers are hardly ever carried on my boat anymore...too much like work using them for my sailing plan nowadays Dwight Veinot C&C 35 MKII, Alianna Head of St. Margaret's Bay, NS _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
