Western LIS PHRF has a 6 sec/mi penalty for a whisker pole longer than
the J measurement, but no limit. I just bought a Forespar 12-22, have
been non-spin racing with a J-length spinnaker pole and found I usually
can not get the No.2 (145%) to fly with it.

BTW, ECSA (Eastern CT PHRF) has removed max length for whisker poles
from the regulations (someone mentioned other parts of Long Island
Sound may still have restrictions). I only have a spinnaker pole (I
mainly race with spin), so that's what I use, but (much) longer is
needed to effectively pole out a 155%. My "J" is 13.6'; the #1 would
be happy with the clew poled a bit more than 20' out.

Well, $100 was pretty cheap. I have a twist lock that I may sell.
Since getting the
larger line control I have not used it much. As mentioned earlier,
even at 17' it
is small for a #1.
If you would like to race National Yacht Club has a policy of
welcoming racers from
nearby clubs to join us for week night racing. You could race NFS
on Tuesdays, FS
on Wednesday, and there is a special beginners NFS on Thursdays.
NYC also starts
the race for the Alexandra Yacht Club on Thursdays. We have two
"Around the
Island" weekend races a year with an open invitation. You will
need a PHRF-LO
certificate and show $2M insurance coverage.
If you are getting brave I have a spinnaker I could loan you.

Thanks Dwight. I haven't raced the boat yet (except for some
fun races the
club hosts annually). The keelboat racing scene at our small
club is
dwindling but yeah, I plan to participate in the weekly races
this year.
