Hello, I'm looking for information on how to replace the string or twine that opens and closes the jaws on a spinnaker pole. The twine on mine broke, it seems as if there is suppose to be a line in the middle of the pole to be able to open or close the jaws from the middle of the pole versus going to one end or the other
Thanks in advance for your help in this matter

Is it a dip-pole setup or end-for-end? Assuming the former if the trip line was internal...

If so, (i.e. single jaw at one end, and pole car socket at the other) you'll probably have to remove the jaw end and replace the trip line. If a standard two-jaws end-for-end pole there are lots of options for external trip line(s).
