I don’t remember seeing a rule on this in Sailing Instructions but will check.

My association's bylaws are moot on whisker poles. However, I sometimes see whisker poles limited to J in sailing instructions for a particular regatta. If you're flying a 155 then the sail won't be fully extended and will flop around. Been there, done that, hate it. For a 35-1, the difference between J and LP (at 155% genoa) is nearly 8 feet (22.5 vs 14,5)! Dennis C.

If you use a J-length spinnaker pole as a whisker pole in non-spinnaker events, then you get a 3 sec credit. And you do need a band on the whisker pole if it's extendable.
