Subject: Wisker Pole measurement ... another says...
In reply to: Randall, Murre, M31 's message, "Murre's Whisker Pole" on - Monday - 02/10/14 - 1:50pm

Was reading another board tonight and found this possibly helpful comment re Spinnaker pole measurement. The poster is discussing a Westsail 32 whose pole length is 18 feet:

The "J" measurement of the W-32 is 18' 0". That is how the pole length was determined. If you only cruise, you can use any length you want at any time. If you ever race and are ever rated with a spinnaker then your pole length can not excede the "J" measurement without a penalty.
