Hi Folks,
I'm looking for a Spinnaker pole for my Vega. It looks like buying a
length of 6061-T6 tubing and the end fittings would be a pretty good
option. Does anyone have an idea on a) what diameter pole, and b) what
wall thickness should the tubing be?
My current pole is improvised from an old telescoping whisker pole and
just isn't up to the job anymore. I broke it and have a temporary
splice in it.
I'm on the west coast of Ireland, Galway.
