I recently bought a whisker pole on Craigslist and saw a number of spinnaker poles at the same time. If you use SearchTempest you can search the whole country at once. I have found that there seem to be spikes in availability of poles. At some times you find none and then other times lots. I

I acquired a 1985 C&C 33 MKII mid last summer. I need to replace the spinnaker pole. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can find a used spinnaker pole or a good price on a new one? I've checked ebay and found a few items but not much. Thanks Tom *Escape* (to be renamed) 1985 C&C 33 II

If it's in good shape, buy the pole, remove an end fitting by either taking out the screws or drilling out the rivets, cut 10" off the aluminum pole, drill the pole for new screws or rivets and put it all back together. Easy! Rich > On Nov 3, 2013, at 10:39, Jean-Francois J Rivard wrote: >
