Pole uphaul/downhaul
g) Spinnaker pole set up
Put the spinnaker pole between the middle two knots of the yellow uphaul/downhaul and
attach the inboard end to the eye on the front of the mast.
There should be about 20mm of slack before the bottom elasticated end of the downhaul
comes up against it’s stop inside the mast. If it is significantly more than this, remove the pole
and shorten the uphaul (top end of yellow rope) accordingly. You may also need to adjust the
position of the 6 knots in the rope so that the pole is just above horizontal when between the
middle two knots.
100mm
Pole uphaul/downhaul
should go between the
pole open line and the
pole. This will keep the
pole attached to the boat
in the event of capsize.
