The owner's manual was an after thought, so I ask, how do you rig the spinnaker on this boat? I have the pole, but not sure if I will use it. So, using the spinnaker with and with out the pole is what I'm after. Pics, email anything is greatly appreciated! Take Care, David Wylde

Two spinnakers

One is symmetrical for downwind only, used mainly by racers. The other is asymetrical for broad and beam reach, for us amateurs. Think of it as just a bigger jib. Put away the jib and fly the spinnaker on the jib halyard. Connect the bottom or tack to the bow. Connect the side or clew to a long line that goes back to the aft. From there you operate it like a jib, only bigger. Enjoy!
