Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
Our rules don't allow us to use the whisker pole set at anything longer than the J measurement. So, I got rid of mine.

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
I bought a Forte spinnaker pole ~ 8-10 years ago. At that time it was significantly less than the Forespar and IMHO wound on a mandrel and stronger. A few years later they made a custom adjustable whisker pole for me since I insisted I wanted a duplicate to the equivalent aluminum pole regarding the diameters of the outer and inner poles. I have no connection to the company and don't even know if it still makes such things.

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
You need one :-) If you're interested I might be able to talk my rigger buddy into ordering more. He had the best price / made the pill a little easier to swallow. But honestly, it's worth every penny and all things considered probably one of the best bang for the buck speed improvement both in terms of simplicity and cost. The only regret I have is not having ordered one sooner.

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
Last year I had a borrowed twist lock whisker pole and was able to store it mounted on the mast. I don’t use a spinnaker, so I attached it to the ring on the car for the spinnaker pole and raised it to the top of the track and attached the bottom to the mast base fitting. To deploy, all I had to do was detach the bottom, attach it to the genoa sheet and lower the car to the correct height and extend it. I never had to actually handle the pole as it was “permanently” attached to the mast. I am hoping I can do the same with my new Forespar pole when it is delivered.

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
Just noticed this again on the RCR Newsletter, this pole has been for sale for awhile now, they may be ready to deal. Carbon Fiber Spinnaker Pole (without end fittings): Was purchased for a Beneteau 36.7 as a spare spinnaker pole. Selling for $1000, retail is nearly double that price.

The best thing is that to deploy, you just pop the bottom out of the urethane jaws, and pull the car down and it just shoots right out Russ, doesnt seem to be a problem in front of the mast as far as I can see.

I am not sure if that is enough protection, but I see the 1997 J-160 down the dock with a clear coat on their carbon mast, and it is still holding up.

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
Thanks all! My pulpit also has a welded ring. I clipped the forward end of the pole to it and bought a used stanchion mounted chock at Bacon's for $10. The aft end of the pole is even with the rubrail so it is not a docking hazard. The aft deck fitting came off in a couple minutes. Epoxied the holes. One major tripping hazard eliminated, one deck fitting left to remove.

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage
Joel, The OEM setup on our boat clipped the front of the pole to a large ring on the pulpit and the aft end went onto a rail mounted SS toggle. The toggle was missing when I bought the boat and it was sail tied to the toerail, crew complained when they sat on the rail over the pole. I leater learned to rig the pole to the mast regardless, as it stopped the genoa sheets fouling the pole car. I mounted a Forespar deck chock I don't like, to the deck to store the pole closer to the chainplates. It has a dildo that fits inside the pole end. I think a simpler SS ring would work better and never catch a line? We make it a habit to point the dildo down when the pole is off the chock, so it doesn't catch a line, but I hope to fab something better. The chock allows easier hiking on the rail. A don't like the stanchion mounted pole holder as the end sticks out past the max beam and can become a problem and catch things when docking.
