Reply to: Adding a Spinnaker Need suggestions

[quote=RicardOben]Just did this last year added a soft spin to a 5.5 UNI to replace a Hooter. Set the pole length, mine is 12 ft, old Aquacat spar. I have the foil and yes the pole end is low but nothing to worry about. Do not set the halyard height until you can check your angles all of them. My sheets run to the shrouds and then to the front cross bar just like all the F-16-17-18 boats I have seen. The halyard needs to be above the spin and the further up it goes the longer the tack goes so you can set the angle of the sheet. Lots of playing around before you will make it work. For example if your angle is wrong you can run a tack line that is just a little long to get the angle down on the clew. HTH, Ricardo.[/quote]
