Reply to: Adding a Spinnaker Need suggestions

[quote=MN3][quote]Does the tube handle much stress or is it mainly just to hang the snuffer on and run lines out?[/quote] yes it has a good deal of stress on it. you want to (pre)bend the tip of it down pretty far so the middle has a good arch and there is no chance of the entire pole inverting on you during use. [quote]I assume that I need to drill holes through the bows to put an attachment point for some wire rigging that would go to the end of the pole.[/quote] Yup - drill on an angle .... oversize hole... fill with epoxy to seal it (so no moisture can wick in the hulls and get soft there) then re-drill smaller [quote]Does anyone have a good rigging diagram and photos available?[/quote] i will see what i can find... but do some youtube searches and you will find lots of stuff What boat is this for? i would suggest the 5.7 or 5.8 can handle a tornado spin, the 5.2 would do better with the f18 or an f16 spin[/quote]
