We bent/dented a spin pole on a C&C 33 MKII ....forgot to release the
baby stay on a jibe....got a new length of aluminum tube and used all
the existing hardware....the Binnacle did all the work for a few hundred

Dave,
I’d be very wary of any dent fix solution that doesn’t involve a
sleeve. Even better, simply buy a length of aluminum tube of the same
dimensions, cut it to length and add all the existing hardware. I
don’t have any numbers but I have to believe it will be cheaper than
having someone try to pull the dent out.
Remember, when that spinnaker is up it will be putting a large amount
of strain on that pole. Having it fold up at the wrong moment will be
un-fun.
Best,

Subject: Stus-List spinnaker pole repair and refurb
Evening all,
This winter's theme is running rigging, and this includes dealing
with the spinnaker pole, which is dented, slightly bent, and needs a
new shock cord bridle. Per recommendations here, I picked up the
shock cord tools last weekend in Nova Scotia - that part is easy.
Any suggestions on how to with the dent/bend?
See photos here.
